Working on the Ship-Wrecked Role Play |
This morning we kicked off our day with a half hour of silent reading during AR. At 9:38 we moved on to ELA and officially started our Dystopian Unit. For our introductory lesson, students were split up into 5 groups and took part in a role-play activity where they found themselves stranded on a desert island in the year 3000. Students had to work together in their groups to make decisions on issues such as: leadership, division of labour, property and currency. We only got half way through the activity today so we will spend some time finishing it up tomorrow.
In Grade 8 Math we began unit 5 by looking at views of three-dimensional objects. Students learned about the different parts of 3D objects (face, edge and vertex) as well how to determine the top, front and side views when looking at a 3D object.
