What We Learned Today...September 14th

Today we started out the morning with our first AR session of the year from 9:00-9:30.  At 9:30 Ms. Norris came and took the students outside to enjoy the nice weather during Phys. Ed class.  In Grade 8 Math we had a quick quiz on Ratio's, Rates and Proportions and worked on our practice tests for the hour.  *Note: The Unit test has been bumped back from Monday, September 17th to Wednesday, September 19th)

After Lunch we went outside once again and enjoyed French class in the hot sun.  Students continued to work on their 30 second basic conversations that we will present next class.  During Social Studies, the students contiuned to learn about Wants and Needs by calculating their Ecological Footprint online.  They were then asked to complete a few questions about their Footprint in a handout which can be found here
