Math: We have started our new chapter on solving equations. This is a difficult chapter that requires students to practice solving equations every day. I strongly encourage parents to look at their child's work in the upcoming weeks.
We have finished our chapter on Surface area and symmetry. Unfortunately, the results of the test were quite low. We will review the test in class together to be better prepared for the midterm questions.

Students have finished watching the movie Gattaca. They’ve
made notes for and against genetic modification of unborn children and will
have a debate on this topic early next week. They were randomly assigned to one
of four groups (strongly for, slightly for, slightly against or strongly
against). The follow up assignment is called: Designer Babies: Should we allow
human genetic modification to unborn children. They are to pick one of the
standpoints and make the best argument they can to support their view. This assignment
will be completed in written format.
We have been marking essays based on the PAT rubric. Here are the 4 essays which you need to mark (3/4) by Wednesday Jan. 29th.
