Lundi, gris.

Today, students worked at their "Recit d'aventure" assignment. Some students have quite a good start. Hopefully, Monsieur Wanie will enjoy reading them!

As well, Monsieur Wanie handed-back the "Histoire, Chapitre 1" units. Most students did really well. Others may not have done enough research or failed to read the chapter to add depth to their answers...

86 and 87 began a new art assignment, a group one this time. The goal is to make a detailed skyscraper in 1:87th scale. Some cool websites are listed below. Students, pay attention to scale, it's 1:87 (Called HO scale), not N scale which is 1:160. 1:87 means 87 feet in real life, equals a foot in HO scale. So for example, the tree outside the classroom window that is about 43 feet tall, would be 6 inches (1/2 foot) in model form...
