Monday, November 7, 2017 (Day 1)

ELA 9A

The students read for ten minutes.  Then we watched a short video on hyperbole.  You can view it on Google Classroom if you missed it.  The rest of the class was work time on questions for chapter 7 & 8, which we'll correct next class. If you were absent I e-mailed you the questions. 

COMPUTERS 8

The students had time to finish their storyboards for their paragraphs.  They also had time to explore adding points to a game, which we'll be using in our last programming project.

FRENCH 7B

Three students were in the Chaise Chaud.  We reviewed the verb ÊTRE and then the students wrote their quiz. *If you were absent see Miss Riddell to write your quiz ASAP. We then discussed AVOIR and ÊTRE and when there are exceptions to how you use them.

For examples in French:

You have thirst and hunger.  Tu as soif.  or Tu as faim.

You have so many years.  Tu as quatorze ans.

You have hot or cold.  Tu as chaud. or Tu as froid.

Where as in English we say You are thirsty or hungry.  You are 14 years old.  You are hot or cold.

ELA 9B

The students read for 10 minutes.  Then we corrected the chapter 7 & 8 questions from last day.  If you were absent you can hand them in for me to correct or get the answers from a classmate. We also had an interesting discussion on the various degrees of murder charges. 

*Early dismissal today at 2:15 pm!

*Grade 9's remember to get your SGI number ASAP.  On Thursday we will do a test login so bring your number to school that day.
