... and the Presentations are Done!

A hula-hoop house game was a fun way to start the day before a long weekend. All students participated. Well done to Kappa for winning the primary game and to Theta for winning the junior game.

We started our day with the last two groups presenting their generating station and uranium power projects. We have had an enjoyable time listening to all the presentations, with each group having their own distinct flavour. The feedback from the class has been thoughtful and encouraging.

We had a little bit of language time where students finished up the limerick they were working on yesterday. The remaining language time was used for novel study. Students met in groups to discuss Chapter 13 of The City of Ember. There was no time for reading in class. Students should complete the reading of Chapter 14 and complete their response for homework. Our next discussion takes place on Tuesday.

Students attended French, music, gym, and math classes today. In addition, most of the class participated in or supported today’s intermural soccer game where Kappa went up against Zeta. Well done to both teams. Kappa won 1-0.

In math, (coming soon)

For homework, students are to complete the mid-unit review.

Students should continue their research on Madagascar. Please have this ready to share with the class on Tuesday. Remember to research and prepare a traditional dish from Madagascar for International Day. Let me know when you have decided on a dish. International Day takes place on Thursday, November 17 from 2:30 pm – 3:15 pm. We look forward to seeing families at this event.

 

Tomorrow is a PD Day for teachers. There is no school for students. Students are required to wear their winter uniform on Tuesday after the long weekend.

Have a lovely long weekend everyone!
