What We Learned Today...May 15th

Having fun at the dissection!

This morning we started out our day with the usual AR period from 9:08 to 9:38.  At 9:38 we switched things up a bit and Mr. Csada stopped by to teach an extra Social Studies lesson because Social Studies was cancelled this afternoon due to the dissection.  In Grade 8 Math we began Unit 10, which focuses on solving linear equations. While we have moved on to a new unit, don't forget we still have our Unit 9 Exam next Wednesday.  So students, be sure to start studying a little bit each night to make sure you get the best possible mark on your exam!

After lunch we headed to the gym for your Squid Dissection!  We were very fortunate to have Mr. Zawislak join us this afternoon as he guided the students through their dissections.  A special thanks to Mr. Csada for organizing our afternoon and to Zawislak family for volunteering their time and sharing their expertise with us!

Here are some pictures from our afternoon:
