Here is a link to a link from September 11, 2017, for this exercise. It is similar to the activity we did with the Kent Monkman painting. We will look at this one together and discuss it and then find out what is going on.

The tragedy in Syria is horrific. The images you took in from this morning's exercise are a small portion of the devastation of a once thriving city. This particular Pinterest site looks at some before and after photos of the nation, Aleppo in particular: https://nl.pinterest.com/explore/aleppo-before-and-after/?lp=true
The guide -- Success Criteria -- for this is on a laminated poster we have up during this exercise time:

This video uses a method based on the idea that you have learned about Prime Factorization. Based on the work we have done, it won't be a stretch and I will be sure to cover it this week. I will model one approach to reducing today.

Mathematics
In Math, the test was put off until Wednesday. I wanted to wait to review some past questions and review the Study Sheets completed by most members of the class. On the Google Classroom site, I posted this note, which should be kept in the Math section of the binder. The quality won't look very good in these photos, but if you are having challenges logging into the other site, this should work:
The first portion of the page can also be explained by looking at this video by Saya's favourite online teacher:
The portion about reducing to the lowest terms, or simplifying fractions, can be seen here:

Homework
Math test moved to Wednesday to provide more opportunity for a class review
What is Going on in this...is due tomorrow
Science Test tomorrow
