Grade 7/8 class February 21st

To: Grade 7/8 Parents

The last week of school have been filled with many fun events related to I love to read Month.  The students were read to by the staff from the radio station 99.1. They have also had a chance to listen to other teachers in the school read to them .
We have been celebrating Festival de Voyageur week by tasting some delicious pea soup at school, dressing up like Voyageurs and sampling some maple syrup at our field trip on Friday.
This week the students are encouraged to dress up on Wednesday like a fictional character from a book.

Shops is on Monday this week.
Chapel - God shows himself in smoke and fire
7 Math - Area and Perimeter of a Circle
8 Math - Integers
ELA - Spelling, reading and a poetry project.
Science - Electromagnetic light

I am looking forward to another great week.
