History
Our class was the last of the three classes to begin exploring the idea of connecting the Historical Literacy with a work of fiction. By the time you have gone over a lesson three times, it becomes clearer. To make the connection between the research chart and the in-class exercise, I numbered off the corresponding points.
Although all three groups are not finished, I photographed members of our class:
I will return to my text and make connections across all 4 modes of thinking to assist the groups with completing the assignment and preparing to select topics for the actual History projects.
Mathematics
When you have both a Grade 7 & 8 class, you sometimes have topics where the older group is doing something a little beyond the younger one. In some cases, the topics can be entirely different. Right now, both groups are dealing with the adding and subtracting of fractions and having to simplify the answers.
In order to simplify, you need to be able to factor. Jiya and Saya's favourite talking head offers up some information in this video. It is cool to see him talking about some of the concepts we have discussed in class.

The Math homework is posted on the Google Classroom site. The items relating to factoring will unfold next week in class.
