May is already here. Only two more months of school left!
The students participated in Music Monday today at 12:00 by singing a song composed by Serena Ryder for all Canadian schools to sing. This event occurs the first Monday in May to recognize the importance of music programs across Canada. The students very enthusiastically sang and had a lot of fun learning the song.
ELA & Religion--The students continue to read Tuck Everlasting and are enjoying it. They are working through the book reading orally in class, completing questions, vocabulary and meeting in Literature Circles for discussion. We will be watching the movie once we are done reading. I will be sending home a permission slip as it is rated PG.
Math--The Grade 7s have started Ch. 10 on Patterns. The Grade 8s have started Ch. 9 on Linear Relations.
Social Studies--The students created tests for classmates based on their research from last week.
Science--We've finished looking at the flood and are moving on to water treatment systems.
French--We continued to work on grammar and vocabulary through sentence writing.
