Staying on top of things.

This blog is created as a way to stay on top of the learning throughout the year and as a way to discuss various topics that will arise as you learn. I hope that you find this blog useful as a way of checking in on what you have missed while you were away and double-checking on the information that we will cover in the class.

An important note: It is YOUR responsibility to catch up on missed work and assignments through this blog. Therefore, I will expect that you will be prepared and ready for all activities and the work assigned will be completed on time. It is really important to stay on top of your work so we can be motivated, responsible members of the class.

Also, feel free to offer up your comments on lessons, activities, etc. as you like. It is important that you can comfortably offer up any feedback that will help create memorable learning experiences. Your voice is important.


Success does not come before effort in the dictionary!

A & G - Integrated Studies 8 > Brains burning from talk about competencies

 A lot of important areas were covered today to help us move forward with getting a better understanding about planning for inquiry and knowing how we are assessed. Everyone was introduced to the Project planner (found on top of the Moodle page) that is helpful to complete as you are working to complete your exit assignments.  The first page and numbers 3 and 4 must be done for next class.

Also, we spent time introducing ourselves to Core competencies (on Moodle) and the Social Studies curricular competencies and trying to choose the ones that could be assessed through completing the Energy exit assignment. It was not an easy task to understand all the educational jargon, but I think we found some success.

Please remember to take the large chart and choose competencies that connect to the Energy assignment and the past one on Identity.
