Pancake Tuesday


Our Spirit Day began with a pancake eating contest during this morning’s assembly. Well done to Kappa, Zeta, and Theta for taking first, second, and third place respectively.

Once in class students wrote their UOI test. Students who needed it, received extra time to complete yesterday’s math unit test. For tomorrow’s UOI class, students will be experimenting with ‘green screen’. They should download a green screen app onto their phones for this activity.

Students had gym, math, and French class today. In math, students reviewed writing data as fractions, simplifying fractions, representing fractions in pictures, and solving fractions involving fractions. They then converted fractions to decimals, by first writing them as equivalent fractions with a denominator of 100. They are to complete the practice questions on p. 290 – 291 of the MMS7 textbook for homework. They have received hundredths grids for this work.

Spirit week takes place all week. Tomorrow is Whacky Wednesday where anything goes. Students not participating should wear their school uniform.

We will be painting on Friday. Students should come to school having chosen the Canadian/Ontario physical feature/landform they have chosen to paint.
