Today was a special day we had Olympic athletes at our school and we ate cake because it was Mrs. Nicholson's birthday. So lucky us!
We started the morning with math. It seems as though many of you had a great learning day yesterday with Mr. Corby, so congrats to you all. We continued on making algebraic equations and the grade 7's continued on identifying patterns and explaining them. I think the grade 8's have p.128 #4-7 and the grade 7's have p.126 the whole page! Sorry I forgot to write it down before I left for the day.
After recess we got called down to the gymnasium to meet and greet two Olympic athletes. We got to learn about some of their training habits, how they felt about representing Canada and we also got to find out more about their personal lives. It was a once in a lifetime experience and we are lucky to have had the Olympians come to our school. I took some photos of the assembly but below have attached pictures of both Virginia McLachlan and Martin Reader.
After lunch we had some time to watch a couple of videos to reinforce what we are doing in math. You will find them attached.
We then talked about our next health project, and how we are going to go about it. We will talk about portions and see what some of those look like, so that you journal accurately when we start the new project.
After that we had some time to work together and finish up some projects, I started reading your I am From poems but will need some of the weekend to get more feedback on those pages.
Then finally it was the time we were all waiting for. Cake time. We sang Happy Birthday to Mrs. Nicholson and ate cake. It was delicious, thanks for having a birthday Mrs. Nicholson!
In French you handed in your postcards and hopefully everyone was finished. I hope you had a great day, because I definitely did!
