What We Learned Today...October 30th

Here's a quick overview of our day today!

ELA: We started the day out with a shortened ELA period and read the rest of Chapter 10 from Harry Potter together.

Religion: We were very fortunate to have the "Catholic Education Guru", better know as Mr. Meyers visit our classroom again for one of his awesome presentations.  Today he taught us about the history of Halloween and where many of the traditions originated from as well as the history behind All Souls and All Saints Day.   It's always a treat to have Mr. Meyers stop by our classroom and teach us something new about our faith! We hope he comes back and visits soon!

Phys. Ed: The students participated in circuit training and had time near the end for a mini Volleyball game.

Health: We spent the period finishing the video we started yesterday about Anorexia then the students completed a few response questions aligned with the video.  I have posted the video below if you would like to view it as well!




Grade 8 Math: Over the hour, the students worked hard on completing their textbook assignments from yesterday and began working on the 3.5 handout.

Assembly: Instead of Social today we headed to the gym for our Month End Assembly. Congratulations to all our Football team members who were recognized in front of the school today!
