Primary Christmas Concert

complete the research component of their project about First Peoples and their interaction with the environment. Students who completed this work in class showed me their work and received feedback on how to improve their information. Any incomplete research needs to be completed for homework. Students will be creating their Powtoons tomorrow.

We discussed Chapters 11 & 12 of Tuck Everlasting during today’s novel study time. Students have been assigned the following reading: Chapters 13 & 14. They need to complete discussion pages 39 - 42 in the study guide. Much of this work was completed in class. Any incomplete work needs to be completed as homework for tomorrow’s class.

The class chose to go to support our primary students by attending the primary Christmas concert at 12:30 pm. We enjoyed our time doing this.

Grade 6s had math class today. In math students worked on the unit review. For homework, they should complete Q. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 on p. 107 of the MMS 7 textbook. Students will be writing a math test on Thursday.

We worked on shooting portions of our concert video today while students were in costume.
