Been a while since the last post. This week we visited Nationview Public School for our second of three visits to their Design and Technology program. The students are hard at work on their woodworking projects (airplanes) and their science project (crane and self propelled cars). Next Monday will be our last visit and the students will be expected to finish both projects. The science project is being evaluated for science class as the students are studying simple machines in class. Each student has been completing their Design Template and will have to present their finished project before Christmas.
We are still working on the Outsiders. Currently the students are working on Chapter 9's questions, plot prediction diagram, timeline notes, and vocabulary. Last week students had an interactive quiz using Clickers on Chapters 4-7 of the novel.
A number of students have not yet brought back their tests signed and Mr.Brooks is putting together his most wanted list. Students have had a Math test and Science test go home over the last couple of weeks and while most have brought them back not all have been so successful.
This week we are also collecting nonperishable food items for the Christmas Food Drive. Currently our class is at 25 items (we hope to have more by the end of the week).
The school is also doing a Shopping day for the lower grades so if you have any gently used items you wish to dontate please send them in to the school.
Our class will be having a Christmas celebration during the last week of school before the break - more details to follow.
Only 18 more days till Christmas.
