What We Learned Today...April 5th

Saying goodbye to Dr. Papandreou!

*Before I get to the overview of our day, I just wanted to write a quick thank you to our class for everything this week. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! You guys are amazing, I never could of imagined all the wonderful surprises you had in store for me this week; I'm so grateful.  Each and every one of you are amazing individuals and truly make my job the best in the world!  I am so blessed to work with such an amazing group of thoughtful and caring students each day and I'm really going to cherish these last three months we have together. You guys rock!

Thank you again,

-Mr. B  

ELA: This morning we were very fortunate to have Dr. Zisis Papandreou, a professor from the University of Regina, visit our classroom to teach us about constellations and Greek myths. Dr. Papandreou's presentation was amazing and we would like to thank him for taking the time to visit us!
If you would like to experience Dr. Papandreou's presentation, please see his fantastic power point below:

Career Ed: As our real game mini-unit comes to a close, the students have been tasked with a culminating project of planning a vacation using the money they stashed in their savings accounts.

Religion: Students were given the period to put the finishing touches on their tableau's for the Stations of the Cross.

Math: We started the period off with a quick review and Socrative quiz before spending the remainder of the period working on the 8.4 textbook assignment.

*Please try to get your Farewell Photo Recreations into Mr. Bresciani by April 13th.  With so many things to do for Grade 8 Farewell, taking care of this early will help to make May and June a lot less stressful.
