In ELA the grade 7’s are finishing up their Dust novel study with a Skype interview with the author himself, Arthur Slade. Then they will be starting their “Why so serious?” unit which combines a delightful use of humour with captivating stories. Looking forward to some good laughs and great work! In science the students are beginning to learn about why matter and energy are necessary in all ecosystems. In social studies they are in the thick of things learning about conflict, cooperation and interdependence in North America. I, Mrs. Kinzel, have recently started teaching the last of Mrs. Bain’s grade 7 classes, math. In math the students have started some review with factors and multiples and will soon be moving to decimals, fractions and percentages. I guarantee 100% fun!
