What We Learned Today....September 10th

Ms. Folk discussing STAR tests!

Now that we've learned our lesson about technology in our classroom (not working great yet), we headed to the Library first thing for our ELA class.  Today the students logged on to our new Surface Pro tablets and spent the hour working on their Kidblog assignment from yesterday.  Since there are still a few glitches to work out with our new devices, I will give the students one more class to finish up their posts before they are due.  At 10:35 Ms. Postma stopped by for Arts Ed and the students learned about perspective and facial proportions before heading to the Library to complete their STAR Tests.  

After lunch we had headed back to the Library to finish up STAR testing before Religion where the students worked on an assignment that dealt with Expectations they had for themselves as well as expectations from their parents, teachers and God.  In Grade 8 Math we attempted to take a quick quiz on Socrative before beginning the assignment for 2.2 (Rates).  During the last hour of the day the students had French with Ms. Bachiu.
