Hello Parents and Div 10 Students,
This week at Queneesh was another busy work week. Please take the time to have a conversation with your son or daughter about what they are learning.
We covered the following concepts this week:
Math: grade 6's finished learning about the area of a rectangle A= l x w and they are now learning about the volume of a rectangular prism V= L x H x W.
Grade 7's finished up calculating the circumference of a circle and are learning how to calculate the area of a parallelogram A= b x h.
LA- this week in Poetry we are learning how to write different types of poems. We wrote the following poems this week: Haiku, Cinquain, Limerick, Concrete and Autobiographical.
Science- we discussed the importance of bones and muscles. The students worked in small groups to prepare educational presentations about muscles. Next week we will explore the nervous system through a web quest and mini discussions.
Art- last week we made sunglasses and this week we started a doodle gram assignment.
PE- we've been learning how to play Ultimate Frisbee and working on our school dance performance. We also started our Track and Field practices- please bring water and running shoes!
French- the students have been learning how to use simple expressions to talk about clothing. On Monday they will perform a fashion show using French.
Upcoming events: RCMP internet safety talk, Track and Field practice, Doug David note taking tutorials, BC First Nations unit.
Have a great weekend!
