The Junior Achievement Program came back today - I greatly appreciated their time in effort to come and spend time with us! They discussed interviews and online media profiles. They also did some mock interviews with some of the students. We ended class by playing a board game based on the content we learned.

I won't see you guys again before the break, so have a fantastic holiday!!!
Today students wrote a final test on "A Midsummer Night's Dream". In the second block, we read up to page 47 in My Name is Seepeetza. We also did a 'cut and paste' activity in which students had to evaluate Seepeetza's education at home and at school. Furthermore, we watched a few more video clips discussing the effects of Residential Schools.

English 9: Blocks 5/6
I was away on Friday, but students had their last class in the library to work on their AMSND projects. Many of them have already been handed in - thank you! Friday was our last class to work on it.
To start off class, we took out the novel My Name is Seepeetza. After that, we watched a summary video of "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Students then took some notes on Shakespearean Comedies. THIS WILL BE A QUESTION ON THE TEST - STUDY THESE NOTES! Students then had time to complete a practice test, and we spent the rest of class playing Jeopardy games.
