I will have an extra help Friday at lunch instead of craft club to help students with last minute questions related to STEM fair.

Math 8 and science 8

-We did our test on order of operations with fractions.

-Students had two work periods to work on their STEM projects or to work on Mathletics tasks. 

-We will start STEM presentations on Wednesday Feb 23^rd.  Students should now be working on the final touches at home.  Some students will be presenting a “where I am at” instead of a final project.  This is “OK” as some innovation projects take a long time and cannot be finished in a 6 week time frame.

Math 7 and Science 7

-Students had a work period today to work on STEM fair project or on Mathletics projects.  We will begin our class presentations next week.   Students should be working at home on their STEM projects.

Science 6

-Today we had a work period.  I met with several students to help them start the editing process.  I would advise that students type their work in Word.  That they click on the review tab followed by the <language> button and then <set proofing language>.  This should be set to French (Canada).   The blue lines are grammar and accord mistakes and the red lines are spelling mistakes.   After this students can copy and paste work into BonPatron.com .  This site will show students where there are mistakes and by hovering the mouse over the mistakes it will tell them how to correct it.

Please remember that simple clear statements are best.

-Students are to finish the project at home.  They will present in class next week.

Health 8

-Today students presented their song project where they discussed what a healthy relationship is. 

-We started to learn about sexually transmitted infections.  We will continue this next class.
