Mathematics:

Today, we worked on questions that the students were struggling with on Transformations and then we moved on to Similar Figures, a continuation of Congruent Figures, which we worked on yesterday.

Congruent Figures: Same Size & Same Shape

Similar Figures: Same Angles, Sides are multiplied by the same number to equal the 2nd figure

Language:

Students handed in their rough copy of their "All About Me" Project. I will be looking over those tonight.

Unit of Inquiry: Government

We started our debate today. So far we have heard from our Dictatorship Government, our Oligarchy Government and our Constitutional Monarchy. The last group will finish up tomorrow. 
We will also begin to learn about Canada's government! Students are encouraged to look into how our government is organized and who is in charge. The quiz about this information will tentatively be scheduled for Wednesday April 11th. 


As a reminder: St.Jude's Academy is now affiliated with an official soccer club called St. Jude's FC. Students of St.Jude are given a 33% discount that will allow them to join the club and play competitively with other soccer clubs this spring and summer (starting most likely April to September). The students will be working with excellent coaches and going to competitions on the weekend. Practices will be held (most likely) right after school twice a week. In April, besides the soccer field, the students will have a chance to play in our official soccer dome! I think this is a great opportunity!! The students have been given forms (I can e-mail extras), they should try to submit the form as soon as possible.
