What We Learned Today...September 16th

Working on the Goods and Services Assignment!

This morning we started out our day with a period of AR (Accelerated Reading) before heading down to the Library for Social Studies.  We continued on from our last lesson about Goods and Services by looking at the terms, "consumer" and "tax" and students began to investigate what exactly GST and PST are.  At 10:35 Mr. Fuchs took the students outside for Phys.Ed where they continued to work on movement patterns and skills associated with Football.  In Health we finished up our Digital Citizenship lesson from yesterday by taking a survey using the Mimio Vote.

After lunch we spent the first half hour creating a classroom policy for twitter account that we will be using throughout the year.  We discussed how to tweet responsibly and maturely, what good tweets should look and the consequences if we break the rules in our policy.  This lesson tied in really nicely with our Digital Citizenship lesson and students were able to draw from previous knowledge to design our policy. At 1:10 Ms. Bachiu stopped by for French and the students before heading outside for a surprise fire drill.  During the last hour of the day we had ELA and discussed themes so far in the book and students began to work on their "Fakebook" assignment for Chapter 3.
