Day 6
We spent all
day working on exhibition. Six groups managed to practice their oral presentations.
Each of these groups received feedback on how to improve their slideshow. These
groups should make all the changes and improvements today and be ready to
present again tomorrow.
Students got
to use the green screen for their French components today. This was our first
practice using the green screen, devices, and apps. We will have another practice
tomorrow. Students should have all devices, apps, costumes and props needed for
their French component at school tomorrow. They should also choose a background
for their newscast and appoint a cameraperson to shoot the video. It is important that everyone memorise the French lines tonight!
Students
used other class time to work on their standing display.
Exhibition
groups are still working on their action components. As
part of their action component for Exhibition, Jerry and Akash have sent home a
small checklist for students to complete. Please return the survey by Friday,
April 28. Leah, Eghosa, and Arya are also taking action for their Exhibition.
They are looking for any used and unwanted sport equipment. If you have any
items you would like to donate, please send them in! This used equipment drive
will run this week!
The class
attended French class today as well as the Spring Fundraiser Assembly where
students got to witness Mr. Sawatsky get a pie in the face.
Tomorrow is the last day of our SJA Spring Fundraiser. This year,
we are raising money for technology and our goal is $9000. 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!!
