Ms Marsh's Grade 8 ELA/SS class. Though we're all different, we find ways to come together. Building an amazing community. We're welcoming & open to new ideas.

Students are really getting into The Bridge Home by @padmatv! Only planned on reading 1st four chaps today. Neither class wanted me to stop. Read all 7 chaps for Week1 today. Lots of great discussions. Tomorrow we start connecting with others! #GRA19 #GRABridge #sd40learns

Today students had the opportunity to reflect on Phyllis’ Story and those of other Residential School Survivors we wrote our personal reflections on #OrangeShirtDay. So many thoughtful responses. Walk in support of #EveryChildMatters #sd40learns #bcedchat

After our start with Wali Shah on Wednesday, we had another awesome guest speaker, @JanetRWees! She joined our class, @FRMS305, and spoke about the Holocaust, her book When We Were Shadows, and the writing process. Such an awesome day. #sd40learns #bcedchat

Days late...Wednesday was an awesome day for @FRMS305 Ss. The day kicked off with a school wide assembly, put on by student council, for Love 4 Self & Others. Best part...guest speaker ”It all starts with loving yourself.” - @LifeAsWali! #sd40learns #bcedchat

Today we had a visit from Rene Turmel, The Maple Man. Students loved it, especially learning to play the spoons and eating maple taffy from a bed of “snow.” I really want to go back to the sugar shack. #sd40learns #bcedchat #CanadianRoots #nothingbetterthanmaplesyrup

Students from @FRMS305 had an awesome time touring around the TechEd department @NWSSHyacks. It’s awesome to hear the the passion these teachers have for the trades. #sd40learns #ADST #handonlearning

What are some sentences you would write with these randomly created & selected examples of nouns, pronouns, verbs, and adjectives? Definitely a good learning experience with editing. And definitely a good laugh. #FRMS305 #sd40learns #engchat #grammar

Had a lot of this going on this week. Students were busy putting #pentopostcard while writing to other classes participating in #GRARefugee postcard exchange. #GRA18 #snailmail #steppingbackintime #sd40learns

Students came together and worked hard on making our class wreath for the Remembrance Day assembly today. #lestweforget #poppies #WeRemember #sd40learns

A2. We think H knows about the boats. Josef's family was going to meet his dad, who was let out of a concentration camp. He didn't escape, so H must've approved it. He'd be happy the Jewish people are gone, he doesn't like them. - Div 3 #GRARefugee3

A3. It seems like they won't. The smugglers aren't honest people, so you can't expect them to keep their promise of tomorrow. Maybe they'll get on a boat in a few months, but not right away. - Div 1 #GRARefugee3
