Grade 7/8 has been busy!

Hello Lakeshore Families!

January and February were busy months in the Grade 7/8 class despite a few weather-related interruptions! In Science class we conducted investigations into Heat Transfer, Cellular Biology, and Structures and Mechanisms. We have also been preparing for the All Science Challenge, Science Fair, and Heritage Fair. In Math, Algebra ½ students have been investigating equations, fractional word problems, similar triangles, and right geometric solids. The Algebra 1 students have been studying higher order roots, radical expressions, complex fractions, and trinomials. Students also conducted research on important leaders and events as part of Black History Month, dove deeper into world of Python programming, and made significant progress on their Personal Projects! We look forward to some more busy weeks as we near March Break!

An Exciting Start to the New Year in Grade 1/2

The Grade 1/2 class has had a very busy 2019 so far! We have been studying the weather in Science class, and we’ve had lots of really interesting weather outside to observe. We love playing in the snow at recess, and the ski trip to Calabogie was lots of fun! We earned an afternoon of games and had lots of fun playing Jenga, Trouble, and Connect 4. In Math we are studying fractions, money, time, and two-digit addition and subtraction. On the 100th Day of school we challenged ourselves by completing 100 Math questions and reading 100 books! We also had a fabulous time designing and building structures with 100 pieces of Lego.
