Wednesday, October 9, 2019 (Day2)

ELA 8A

The students read silently for ten minutes,  Then we went through the questions about the story "The Pie."  We then read two other stories and discussed how they were or were not personal narratives.
Did they include?
*a personal event in the author's life
*one day, one hour or even a few minutes (short time)
*use all senses - hearing, smelling, feeling, seeing, and tasting (if appropriate)
*dialogue (spoken and internal)
*first person narrative (I)
*clear order of events in the plot
(If you were absent the stories are posted in Google Classroom.)

ELA 9A

The students were with Mr. Clark today and they read silently for ten minutes.  Then they learned about Reversal poems which can be read both forwards and backwards but tell different stories.  The students then had time to create a reversal poem of their own.  They will have part of another class to finish this up,

ELA 9B

The students worked on the Math portion of their CATs today.  Thanks to everyone for being here.

SENIOR FRENCH

The students worked with Mrs. Gartner today.  They shared some activities that they did yesterday orally in French.  They also worked to complete the Exercise E sheet, which we'll correct tomorrow.

CAREERS 7Blue

Today we discussed virtues (a person's principles or standards of behaviour; one's judgement of what is important in life) such as:  loyalty, health, kindness, scholarship, honesty, and so on.  The students then each received a value, which they:
* defined
* found a positive influence
* found a negative
* found a picture 
and posted these in a Google Doc.
We tried to do this in a Google sheet but had technical difficulties.    Thanks to the students for their patience.

CAREERS 8B

Today was the last class time to work on the Young Worker's Readiness Certificate.  Students will now need to complete the modules and test on their own time.  When they have passed the test (with at least 75%)  they need to save and print the certificate, have mom or dad sign it, and then turn it in.
