Exhibition: Slideshow & Creative Components


Day 10

We finished up working on our Fractions, Percents, Ratios, and Rates math unit. The math unit test will take place tomorrow.

Working on the slideshow continued to be the exhibition focus today. I managed to meet with three groups and give feedback on their slideshow. Groups also continued working on various other components. There were a couple of art projects on the go in class today. Students had a lot of fun working on their mannequin challenge with Mr. Oliver. This unfortunately needs another day’s work as students had too many giggles in them for Mr. Oliver to get a final shot. Students are reminded to bring their costumes and props again on Friday.

The class attended French with Mme. Stella today.

It is that time again, SJA. Our annual SJA Spring Fundraiser is fast approaching. It will run the week of Monday, April 24 - Friday, April 28. Forms and information were sent home yesterday. This year, we are raising money for technology and our goal is $9000. If we raise $3000 as a school we get to wrap a teacher in toilet paper! If we raise $6000 as a school we get to silly string a teacher! If we reach our goal of $9000, students will get to water balloon the teachers! There will be a number of events happening throughout the week and amazing prizes for students who participate, as well as a grand prize, which includes a movie and pizza party!! Some of the daily prizes include a gum day, silly string a teacher, an extra casual day, sit on your teachers chair for the day, and pie Mr. Sawatsky in the face!
