We started off our morning a little differently than usual as we headed down to the Kindergarten room right after announcements. Once we got there, the Grade 7/8's partnered up with their little buddies and headed around the school on a letter scavenger hunt. The senior students did such a great job again with the kindergartens and I know Ms. Sutherland and her class really appreciated having our class help out! In Grade 8 Math the students worked on the assignment for 9.2 which deals with looking for patterns in a table of values as well as creating expressions from a table of values.
After lunch the students headed to the gym with Mr. Fuchs for Phys. Ed and they continued working on High Jump. At 1:23 we had French and the students were placed into groups for a mid unit project that tasks them with creating a Radio Advertisement on the location of their choice. The advertisements need to include the name of the location, climate, activities, and foods that would be found there. Students will be using the iPads and other technology to create their advertisements so I can't wait to see listen to the projects when they are completed. During the last hour of the day the students had Social Studies with Mr. Csada and they spent some time going through their landmark assignments before discussing the Culture Fair.
