So today we ran through the grade 8 Math course. Course work will be in an interactive notebook which some students have worked with before. Mrs Stewart, the school's numeracy specialist and interactive notebook adorer, has told me it is 200 pages or bust. Locally, these notebooks can be purchased at Shopper's and Fields. (Tomorrow, Division 1 you will run through the grade 8 Science course; Division 2 launched into the course today). Science course will be housed in their large, three ring binder. The goal in using the two systems is to teach how to organize course work effectively, a skill you will and can apply to your future studies.
We also did some portraits this afternoon in place of Exploratories which will start later. Thanks to Mrs Dvorak who taught the class while I was in a school meeting.
Tomorrow we are having an assembly and a Welcome Back BBQ!
