Another full week teaching grade 8.
It was mostly just a continuation of everything we were doing last week.
In math we were talking about Pythagorean’s theorem
In ELA we were reading Half Brother (and we also did an Orange Shirt Day activity, a listening test, and some writing activities).
In Music Education kids continued making their mix tapes. I had them colour a photocopy of a tape to go with their themes and write in the songs for one of their sides… here are some of their tapes
In Social Studies they handed in their family trees or timeline assignments and we moved on to some textbook work.
And nearly all week my homeroom begged for me to take them outside (because I had taken my other math class outside to measure triangles earlier in the week) but it was such a crumby week outside that I decided they could do the activity with their regular teacher (today it was even snowing on and off throughout the day!)
I must admit... I'm going to miss this class.
And I know they're going to miss me too.

It's been a swell 2 weeks.
