Reminders
- Winter Concert on Wednesday (Div. 1) and Thursday (Div. 2) - doors open at 6:00 pm, concert begins at 6:30pm. Students are to meet in their homeroom classes. Popcorn sale 6-6:29, 8-8:15pm.
- Math test next Monday, might be moved to Tues/Weds depending on progress this week. We will post a "how-to solve" and "how-to-BEDMAS" tomorrow on the blog, with sample questions Friday.
- Math homework: Algebra basics: BEDMAS and Solving Equations worksheet due tomorrow!
In math today we continued to truck on with equations and BEDMAS. Once students grasp one concept it appears some forget the previous ones they've learned. This hiccup is perfectly normal, but it may impact when the next test is.
In social science, we corrected the tests. The goal papers will be sent home today with what the students did well, next steps, plans for next time, and their marks. Please sign the paper and have it returned.
Reader's Theatre! Students have officially been placed in their groups, given their scripts and divided their roles. We had a chance to watch an example of a successful Reader's Theatre presentation and brainstorm observations of what makes a good presentation.
Next, we looked at the mark rubric and students began to plan and practice their story. Friday there will be a dress rehearsal for the groups to practice in front of a live audience.
In health we continued to study the negative effects of sugar and why this problem still continues in our society.
