Fantastic Friday!!!

We began the day with another house game! Check it out!!

Next, we wrote a pre-assessment for our first unit in math: Data Management.

Then we had French with Mdm. Stella. 

After first recess and lunch, students researched the shocking background to electricity by using their devices to discover about the work of Galvani & Volta. They used their devices to find reliable sources of information. They recorded notes to show their discoveries. Students also added Galvani & Volta to their Electric Timeline. Students used their knowledge from yesterday to reference their sources.
