Week of Nov 4 - 8

Hi Friends!

I trust you're all "hopped up" on candy! I know I am... :)

Just a few things to note for this coming week:

Japan Exhibits >  BOTH classes will have time to build/construct on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

Please ensure that you have a plan on how you will manage your time and have conferenced with me about what things you need me to support you with. 

By the end of the week, we will transition into the written component. This means that our classroom will no longer look like a construction zone (haha) and we will be learning about how to properly "build" an informative piece of text.

Friendly reminder that Edict responses will be due at the end of this week (Nov 8).

This was an ongoing task, but I'd like to wrap it up. The supplemental documents can be found in your class' Google Share Folder.

If you've not yet submitted your Letter to the Shogun, or Urban Legend (Written + Podcast/Audio File) - it's now late.  So, we should probably chat on Monday.

Enjoy the weekend friends! And remember, I like Oh Henrys ;)


- Mrs. Lockyer

Fraction Division Problems

Hello grade 8's, Here are a couple links to loads of practice problems (with solutions) for fraction division as well as the PDF link of the entire fractions chapter from the textbook.

A Final Message Before The Break

Hello 8's! We both just wanted to send out a final message. Since next week is spring break, we won't be receiving or replying to messages until Sunday, March 29. We have all been working hard over the past few months, so we encourage you to step away and relax. As we mentioned in our post from Monday, this past week was still a school week - albeit from home - but you are now officially on spring break. Powerschool has been updated with this week's assignments that were collected. If anything is reflecting as "missing" or "incomplete," that means that we have not received it. This could be a technical issue, but we encourage you to double check (You all know about Mr. Badr's frustration with some vanishing google doc shares) We know there is a lot of uncertainty about what is going to happen after the break. We can't answer your questions regarding that. Please keep an eye on your emails from the CBE and/or TMC School for messages on any u...
