This and That


We began our day with a math lesson. Students worked through a review package to prepare them for Wednesday's unit test. Students were challenged to complete questions 1 - 8. Those who did not get done in class are asked to complete and/or correct these questions for homework. Students will receive class time tomorrow to work on the rest of the package.

In today's inquiry time, groups who have completed and submitted their written component met to decide on a their next steps. Groups are working on interview questions, survey questions, and have started their slideshows. Groups who did not submit their written component worked on catching up. They were kept out of recess in order to do this.

18 School Days Till Exhibition 

Groups who have had their art ideas approved should begin bringing in art supplies.

Grade 6s had Drama and French class today.
