SENIOR FRENCH

The students started practicing using "y" a pronoun (meaning there) used to replace a location or place in a sentence.

Example:

Je vais à Saskatoon.  --> J'y vais.

I go to Saskatoon.  --> I go there.

Je suis allé dans la salle de classe.  --> J'y suis allé.

I went in the classroom.  -->  I wen there.

Je vais aller en France.  --> Je vais y aller.

I am going to go to France. --> I am going to go there.

FRENCH 8B

The students practiced their Chaise Chaud.  Then they reviewed RE verbs with a video and a practice sheet. They ended the class with a game of Fruit Basket Upset.

ELA 9B

The students read for ten minutes.  We corrected the questions about Chapter 4 of "The Outsiders"  before reading to the letter in Chapter 5.

CAREERS 8A

The class added items to the many areas that are part of a person's career.  A career is more than a job but rather the sum and total of a person's life events.  The origin of the word career comes from the Latin word carrus, meaning cart. Over time, the word also came to mean “the track the cart follows.”  So your career is both the cart carrying the events of your life and the track you’re following. William Bridges said, “Think of your career as a journey that includes all the events in your life.”

We also discussed how many events in your career start from an early age.  The students listed 5 things they like, 5 things they do well, and 5 things that are important to them.  They began to think of how these items might affect their futures.  They finished by listing up to 5 credentials, experiences and accomplishments that they already have and will make them better qualified to do a job in the future.

ELA 9A

The students read for ten minutes.  We read Chapter 4 of "The Outsiders"  and the students had time to work on the questions, which we'll correct next class.
