What We Learned Today...January 15th

We continued our Matrix lesson today!

We began our day with the usual AR  period of silent reading from 9:38 to 10:38.  In ELA we continued our investigation into Dystopian Societies.  Over the course of the hour we looked at characteristics that identify Dystopian Society as well as character traits that most protagonists possess.  Students were then shown select clips from "The Matrix" and were then tasked with identifying the Dystopian characteristics and character traits within.  In Grade 8 Math we continued to work on finding the Surface Area of rectangular and triangular prisms. 

After lunch the students had Arts. Ed with Ms. Postma and they continued to work on their garage band music assignments on the macbooks.  At 1:38 we switched gears and the students worked on four reflection questions from their Science lab yesterday.  During the last hour of the day the students had Phys. Ed with Mr. Fuchs and they worked on a different basketball skills.
