What We Learned Today...May 21st

Playing some Telephone Pictionary

Today in ELA we continued looking at types of conflict and spent some time sharing the different examples the students found in the fairy tale, Snow White.  Over the hour we also had a chance to investigate the different types of Narrative Point of Views as well as the importance of understanding perspective when writing.  To wrap up the hour the students got into groups and participated in a couple games of Telephone Pictionary, which tied in perfectly with our lesson on perspective!  In Grade 8 Math the students spent the hour writing their Unit 9 Exam.  We will be moving on to 10.2 tomorrow, so students be sure to watch the video tonight! http://goo.gl/INV6Vt

After lunch Mr. Fuchs took the students to the gym for Phys. Ed and they started a new unit that focuses on the sport of Lacrosse.  At 1:23 we had French and the students got into their groups from last class and began to work on their Radio Advertisements and Poster Assignment.  During the last hour of the day Ms. Zenuk stopped by for Health and they worked on their Friendship assignment.
