The students shared some really interesting facts about their poets. We have just concluded our poetry study. We are now masters at figuring out similes, metaphors, alliteration and many other literary devices.

Here are just a couple of photos that I managed to snap. The students worked very hard on this production and I was proud of their efforts. Way to go, guys!

Two employees from the Canadian Cancer Society came to deliver a mini Health fair to my students. They talked about sun safety, nutrition and we even got to see the difference between a dark and ugly tobacco stained lung and a beautiful pink non-smoker lung. It was a great presentation!

Dr. Chandra was a great presenter. She told us all about the different body systems. The students were very intrigued. Thank you Dr. Chandra.

This was an interesting lesson. The students made moveable hands to show tendons and simulate the muscular system.

Well, I finally got my photos to load properly. Here is a look at the past few weeks. We had a great tour of the Basilica. I snapped this photo at the end of the tour. As always, the crypt was a real hit!

We owe a big thanks to Dr. Zbitnew for coming to our class to tell us about the circulatory system. Thank you for teaching us how to be heart healthy.
