Today in Math we continued working on reflections in the coordinate plane. We did two activity sheets to consolidate our learning from yesterday. Tomorrow we will begin the day with a brief quiz on transformations and reflections. Please see the two quick instructional videos below to remind you of these concepts. Study and hopefully all will work out. After the quiz we'll start on rotations! And then my friends we are done this unit!!
For Language we started reviewing the different Purposes for Writing and in your seating groups you brainstormed ideas about "Why people write". We generated a class list and then reviewed the 11 Key Purposes for Writing. For homework you are to brainstorm 10 different audiences for writing answering the key idea "Who is this piece of writing for?".
After lunch we watched the TED talk "What's wrong with the way people eat?" and revisited some ideas about health and healthy eating. We talked about the lecture and you are all to hand in your jot notes from the lecture in addition to writing a 6-7 sentence response to your reactions about the lecture. Plese revisit the lecture below if you forget some of the points.
The rest of the afternoon was filled with Science. I have attached Mrs. Nicholson's notes and you are responsible for a lab report per group. More details to follow but it's due on Thursday.
FYI- We will have to discuss the French computer lab fiasco tomorrow! I feel a detention is in order. :(
Okay, so that's all for today. See you tomorrow! :)
