May has arrived, and the grade eight class is working to make the end of the year successful and productive. With the arrival of spring we are able to get outside more and enjoy some sunshine and fresh air.
The grade eights are busy preparing for track and field in gym.
We are currently studying the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire in social studies, making Roman shields and exploring the the history of this epic period in time.
We are also about half way through the Hobbit, a great fantasy novel by the legendary J.R.R. Tolkien. The class is enjoying the adventure while completing a variety of activities to extend their understanding of the story.
We are about to begin our final unit in French, studying transportation and the movement of people.
