Math 8E1
-We did a practice test today in class. Students stayed at extra help until all their corrections were done on the practice test. Remember that a good way to study for Math is to try questions we did in class as you have the answers to check your work. The text book also has a practice test and answers are in the back of the book.
Science 8L and 8E2
-We reviewed what conclusions should look like for our STEM projects. A check list was handed out.
-We continued our work on optics and lenses and looked at some eye conditions and how we correct them.
Science 7L
-We finished our work around soil formation.
-We learnt about volcanoes, adn earthquakes. We watched a video and saw that they form around the plates.
Students should be "doing" their project this week as we will begin writing our conclusions next week. Projects due last week of this month.
