What We Learned Today...February 2nd

The winning bet! One student was happy that he bet on the Seahawks to win...the other not so much.

We started out our week with a school wide assembly in the gym before heading back to the classroom for a half-hour period of AR.  At 9:38 the Grade 8's gathered together in the Library for the Leboldus High School orientation.  Since this was only for the Grade 8's, the Grade 7's stuck around the classroom and worked on their Social Studies assignment as well as the Motivational Monday video and Blog Response assignment.  To view the entire schedule as well as students videos please visit out Google Doc.
In Grade 8 Math the students were given the hour to work on their practice test from the textbook as well as study for their Unit 5 Exam on Thursday.

After lunch we had Religion and we continued to explore Pope Francis' first year in Papacy.  Students began working on assignment that tasked them with researching Pope Francis' life both before and after he became our Pope.  The assignment is posted in a google doc as well as the Religion tab at the top of this blog.  At 1:38 the students got into their Dystopian Book Club groups and continued to read Section One and work on the blogging response assignment.  *Students, remember you need to be finished section one of your book by Friday as well as your blogging response #1.  During the last hour of the day the students had Social Studies and they worked on their geography assignments.

*Congratulations to girls basketball team on their big win last Thursday.  Great job girls!
