EOE 8 December 16th - 19th

Students will finish their presentations on their Leave No Trace Projects. Once done, they will spend time organising their Duo-Tangs and assignments prior to the break.  If there is time and the weather cooperates, we will take out the set of snowshoes and have some winter fun!

EOE 8 December 9 - December 13, 2019

On Monday, students will be working on a variety of team building and communication activities. 

Students are reminded that we will continue with presentations this Wednesday and Friday in class.  If students are leaving early for holidays, it is their responsibility to arrange a time with Mrs Hunchak to present before they leave. 

Students are also reminded that Mrs Hunchak's FIRM deadline for any missing assignments is Monday December 16th to provide time to mark and return them prior to Mrs Hunchak leaving for Maternity Leave.

Fish Creek Park - November 7th

Students had a great time learning about the different species of plants and animals found in the park from our very own tour guide Roland!

 They also were able to have fun completing an Orienteering course within the park that took them to some of the most picturesque parts of the park!  

Grade 8 EOE: November 12 -15, 2019

We will be wrapping up our Orienteering Unit and Debriefing from our Field Trip to Fish Creek Provincial Park.

We will also begin our work on understanding the Leave No Trace Principles for how to participate responsibly in the outdoors.

Grade 8 EOE: November 4 - November 8

Students should be prepared to be outside this week!

Monday: We will be working on using our compasses to chart our course on a map of the school yard!

Wednesday:  We will be going through a map of the location of our field trip this week, ensuring we know how to read it, and get familiar with the pathways.

Thursday:  Students should be dressed for the weather and be prepared to be outside all day.  Students are also reminded to pack a large lunch, as there is not anywhere to buy food.
