What We Learned Today...October 29th

Taking a second to pose while working on their Science!

After writing my posts the same for the past two year's, I'm going to try something a little different for today's post. Instead of the traditional paragraph, I've decided to give this a shot instead! 

Today was a great day here at Deshaye and here's a breakdown of what we did over the course of the day:

ELA: Instead of working through our Harry Potter unit, we took a break today and finished up our AR movie party that we started on Friday by watching the end of the movie, "Divergent". Tomorrow we will get back to our Unit by looking a little more at the House Sorting Ceremony.

Phys. Ed: Unfortunately, due to Pre-K family day, the gym was unavailable so the students stayed back in the class with Mr. Fuchs and played a really cool game with beach volleyballs.

Arts. Ed: While currently working through their drama unit with Ms. Postma, the students continued to perform tableau's based on the villagers statues they looked at last class.

Grade 8 Math: The day finally came to write their Unit Three Quizzes and the students spent the majority of the period working through this.  If students finished up early they had the choice to work on their homework or get some extra math practice on IXL.

Science:  The students had the entire period today to finish up their Anonymous Fish Dissection Lab Report.  We no longer be spending any class time on these assignments and they will be due on Thursday.
