October 31st...Happy Halloween!

The Bresciani Bunch Dressed to Impress!

Today was a great day here at Deshaye! We started the morning off with a quick AR session before diving into our Ghost Story creative writing in ELA.  Students began the pre-writing stages for their own Ghost Stories and some even began writing their first drafts.  While they were working they got to hear a few more Ghost Stories read to them by Mr. Bresciani from the book, More Ghost Stories From Saskatchewan by Jo-Anne Christensen.  They even got the treat of hearing an original Ghost Story as told by Mr. Bresciani that literally made students jump out of their desks!
In Grade 8 Math we reviewed our quizzes from yesterday and began working on the Chapter 3 Review on Pg. 113.

After lunch we went to the gym and had our annual Halloween Costume Parade.  The students got the chance to show off all of their great costumes to the rest of the school as well as check out some of the other cool costumes other students and staff were sporting.  The students were also treated to their first dance of the year from 2:15 -3:15 and I must say I'm impressed with how well each and every student dances to "Gangnam Style", it's amazing!

Today was an awesome day, as every day in this classroom is! I hope everyone has a great halloween and don't forget Mr. Bresciani does like chocolate.  A few chocolate bars his way while marking tests may put him in a very "happy go lucky" marking mood!

Just kidding, stay safe tonight and have fun.
