It was a great day of learning after 4 days off. We got right back at it with Social studies to start the day. We went over critera for the Socials project and let the groups start collaborating. After recess the Algebra tests were returned and the rest of the block was used to work on their Transformation Art. The afternoon started with Novel Approach book club meetings to share their learning, and ended with a Science lesson on the States of Matter. |

3) HOMEWORK:

- French (a few of you still need to hand in your maps and assessments)
4) POST A RESPONSE
- Today in Science we talked about States of Matter and what the atoms might look like when elements and compounds are in their various states
- We also did a mini lab to see if we could support this idea by asking "How does temperature affect the rate at which a solute dissolves in a solvent?
- We used varrious temperatures of water as our solvent and red food colouring as our solute.
- In your own words write a short paragraph to explain what happened in the experiment, and how that might relate to the movement of atoms in varrious states.
