September has arrived and we are back to school, ready to
work hard. I want to welcome all the grade eight students back to class and
hope we can work together to have a wonderful year of fun and learning.
In ELA the grade eight class will begin the year with a
Novel called “A Company of Fools” by Deborah Ellis. As we listen to the story
each student will be required to keep a journal of their experience.
Our First French unit is entitled “Au
Casse-Croûte” and is
about Fast Food. Students will learn about food choices and ordering in
restaurants.
In Social Studies we will begin our journey through history
with a short unit on Worldviews. We will explore what a worldview is, how a
person’s worldview is developed, what influences our worldview, and how our
worldview affects the way we see the world.
Here’s hoping we have a wonderfully exciting and productive
year!
