Yay...thanks Grumpy Cat for stepping up and participating in our class inspiration wall! We had beautiful weather today for our walk to see the Geek...I mean Greek play. (their words, not mine!) I can't believe that only 8 hands went up when I asked you if you would like to show your learning by putting on a play. It would be fun!! Come on you guys...take some risks...step outside the box...try something new! Those who want to do drama, it's time to put your 'persuasive' writing skills into practice. Convince the others that this is a good opportunity. POST and have a conversation. I also want you all to post at least one current issue that you are interested in. What event or problem is happening in the world right now that you are concerned about? Homework: See criteria from yesterday for Genius Hour site....some of you need to complete thoroughly. e.g.learning intentions are missing, images, etc. Math: Gr. 6 Pg. 218 #3a,b,c,d, 5a,b,c,d Gr. 7 see teacher site Language-practice with adverbs and adjectives (learning intention is to help you write more interesting, complex sentences)

I'm kinda concerned about the Rob Ford subject. First of all he smoked crack, which is kinda scary considering this man is leading a large community. He also has recently been discovered having a drunken rant at a steak queen restaurant after drinking quite a lot of alcohol. This man claims to have quit drinking. But nope, there he is getting drunk at a steak queen.

I think we should all Do a class play because the skills in drama help you down the road in life like not feeling nervous and talking freely and share your opinions it is a great opportunity.

Keep in mind, that not all of us are good at acting. Maybe you should consult the class about it? Talk with the Idea Committee? Do a survey, maybe?

I also think that we should all do a play because it will help us talk more fluently and have more voice projection. A current event that I'm interested in is also the war in syria I'm wondering what will happen next and how they would find a solution to there problem and also now I understand how solving problems will really help you in the future because it kinda relates to this problem and it would come in handy if you were in this situation.

I think a problem is that bacon can't be known as a healthy food.

I think we should do a play because it would be fun, it's a new way of showing our learning and that will help us with our voice fluency. One current issue I am interested in is air pollution. I wonder if air pollution will ever stop and if it does stop what did the world do to problem solve. I also am interested because what are some ways that we can help keep our environment safe including the air we breathe.

A big problem is that a lot the plastic that is thrown into the pacific ocean is floating to one spot. So now there is a huge floating island of plastic and garbage about the size of a large U.S state, in the pacific ocean!!!!!!

I think doing a play would be an awesome way of learning and I think that women equality is a big issue it doesn't really happen here or the USA but it happens in third world countries were girls don't get any rights including education

A current event I am interested in is that in Uganda, Africa, they have just made it legal for somebody who is gay, to be executed and if that person has a friend who doesn't tell the government that his friend is gay, he will be sent to prison. This really surprised me because one of Africa's own Nelson Mandela, who tried his very best to make equality in Africa happen, just died and it doesn't make sense for the rest of Africa and Uganda to go completely against what he was trying to say. I understand that in some religions, being gay is a sin but I believe executing somebody is worse than just being gay.
