F Block: Socials 8-1

Today we opened the class learning about Internet and blogging etiquette and how to add a comment to a blog post.  I asked students to comment on one thing they have learned so far in class and one thing that they like (so far) about secondary school.

Afterwords, we each made one PPT slide about what we've been learning in class about maps/the globe.  The slide was to be printed and hung on the classroom wall as a mini-poster.  Please try to get your work printed between classes if you were unable to print today.

Please try to get a flash drive (USB memory stick) to keep at school so that you have a means to save work you create on the computer.

  1. This is a test comment. Wow, Mr. Marshall, this is totally fun. I didn't think it would rock the way it does, but it does. Man, I'm definitely going to do this again. In fact, you've inspired me to start my own blog. Yippee!

  3. Hello! One thing that I've learned so far in the span of these classes is how to read longitude and latitude. I really hope it will be a useful skill in the future! One thing I've really enjoyed so far in secondary school is the block rotations, because they switch up the classes a bit and keep the routine fresh!

  4. I've learned that Mr Marshall is a funny guy. However he doesn't like it when other people make jokes. I like it when he makes fun of Aaron, it makes me laugh. My favorite part of high school so far has been Mr Scaars PE class when we do rugby.

    The thing I like about high school the most so far is the fact that we have way more freedom than elementary school.

  8. So far I have learned how to couculate lat. and long. I am liking high school so far because there a so many people hear, at my old school there wear only 100 kids in my school and now there are 100 kids in my class. It's very different but I am getting use to it.

  11. I liked when I learned where the Prime Meridian is and what I like about high school is so far is the locker. In elementary I really did not like cubbies. How do students fit their backpack, gym strip, and other school supplies in that tiny nook. The bottom line is, I don't like cubbies!

  12. I have learned that the Tropic of Cancer is at 23 1/2 degrees north and the Tropic of Capricorn is the opposite. So far what I like the most about highschool is having a locker and having more freedom.
