The Slowest Moving Fluid Results and Write Up

Hello grade 8's!

Last week in science we created, tested, modified and raced our fluids with the goal of creating the slowest moving fluid!

Congratulations to Max, Charlie, Tarun and Otha for the slowest overall time of 27 minutes and 26 seconds! Parker, Dawson and Adam had the slowest time in 8-1 with 20 minutes and 18 seconds.

This week we have been working on writing the lab report. Click here to see the ASSIGNMENT DESCRIPTION and the MARKING RUBRIC.

The report is due on Monday, November 18.

Hi friends, As you know, Edict responses were due today ! You were meant to have submitted hard copy versions (handwritten/typed) into your corresponding class' drop box (up near SmartBoard). Today was the second opportunity you had to work on your written rationales for the Exhibit artifacts. Remember, EACH STUDENT is required to submit an informative piece of text along with the build, your blueprints, and any other planning documents you may have. I have provided you with some very specific prompts -- please refer your class' Share Folder for this task. You should also be working on your Hockey Hero task, as I will be looking for this to be completed by Weds, Nov 13. Please come chat to me if you have any questions, comments, or concerns :) Happy weekend folks. -Mrs. Lockyer

Both are due Weds, March 18: - Final Lit Circle Prompt (Essay #2) - Influential Figure *Along the way, we will have check-ins and mini-deadlines as well. Please use your class time effectively . Some of us have struggled the last while and as such, tasks have come in late, and/or incomplete. You are always given enough time... so please do you work. It's part of learning and organizing yourselves. "Real world preparation" means adhering to real deadlines... For the next 2 weeks, you will most likely have to work on tasks ...

There will be an ELA quiz on Friday Oct 18. You'll need to review the following: - sentence types - clauses - subject/predicate - verbs Letter to Shogun is due Friday Oct 18. - Typed, font 12, double spaced, printed Reminder: Please come see me prior to any due dates if you feel you will not be able to meet deadlines. Telling me the day of is unacceptable. Typically you are given time in class, so if you're not handing things in, it begs the question -- "What have you been doing?" We'll be getting into Meiji this week, as well as, starting our exhibit designs. Thanks! -Mrs. Lockyer
