le vendredi 16 octobre

It has been a great week! Here is how we finished it off. 

7B and 7H Health- students wrote a very short quiz to finish up our first unit. The students had to match definitions to terms, all having to do with the types of intelligences and learning styles. Students have also been working on a "Bande Dessinée" (Cartoon strip) for the past couple of weeks in class that will be due Tuesday. 

7B and 7H French- we have been learning parts of speech. In the past few days we have been learning about adverbs and adjectives. Students have been doing very well at completing in-class activities and I've been impressed with their level of understanding. For the last two weeks, students have been given a large amount of class time to complete an assignment that will be due Monday. The assignment is called "L'école de mes rêves" (my dream school) . Students are to draw their dream school and attach a typed paragraph to describe their school. 

7B and 7H social studies- we have been looking over characteristics of a society, including the economy, agriculture, government, written language, etc. We spent time discussing all of these characteristics with PEI as our chosen society. We will now be concentrating on the characteristics of the society of Mesopotamia . 

8C Science-We have spent the last two days in the lab comparing plant and animal cells. Students were able to observe an onion cell under the microscope as well as different types of animal cells. They seemed to really enjoy this activity. There will be a test Tuesday on what we have covered so far in this chapter. (characteristics of living things, the microscope and parts of a cell and their function)
