What We Learned Today...October 8th

The final results of the "Grammar Games".

This morning we had out usual AR period from 9:08 to 9:38.  In ELA we continued to play the "Grammar Games" and worked our way through the Sweet Sixteen all the way to final.  There were some pretty interesting storylines throughout the tournament, especially the Cinderella Story of Matt, who made it all the way to the Final Four before being knocked out by Grace.  In the end though, it was the other Matt who came out victorious over Diamond in a best of 3 series.  Congratulatoins Matt!

In Grade 8 Math we continued to work through our unit by learning about right triangles as well as the Pythagorean Theorem.  We will continue this lesson on Thursday before the students recieve their assignment for this concept. 

After lunch we had French and began to learn about regular "er" verbs as well as the pattern for conjugating them.  At 1:38 we had Religion and read about the life of Mother Teresa, (The Patron Saint for Deshaye) and the students answered a few questions about the reading.  During the last hour of the day the students had Social Studies with Mr. Csada and continued to work on some questions about the rights of Canadians.
