Commercials for Grade 8 Project Business

The grade threes have created commercials to persuade others to persuade peers to visit a chosen grade eight Project Business stand. We have been studying persuasive techniques and the tenets of persuasive writing. We learned about this form of nonfiction writing that encourages careful word choice, the development of logical arguments, and a cohesive summary. We also analyzed commercials, restaurant reviews, advertisements, leaflets, and letters to determine persuasive techniques and evaluate the effectiveness of the chosen technique.

Please view the students' commercials. The commercials are linked by a QR Code, or a two-dimensional barcode. Smartphones have the ability to read both QR codes which automatically take you to a website URL. All you need to do is download a QR reader app, such as QR Code Reader, and then simply point your smartphone camera at the codes.

The videos can also be viewed on Ms. Walter's playlist Commercials by Students.

Geometry

The students brought an environmental example of a three-dimensional solid to cement their understanding of the attributes of geometric solids.

Mother's Day Tea

Mother's Day is celebrated across forty-six countries, though on different dates. People take the day as an opportunity to honour their mothers, thank them for their efforts in giving them life, raising them, and being their constant support and well wisher. 

The class had an opportunity to pay tribute to their mothers and grandmothers during our Mother's Day Tea. The students served cupcakes and squares - desserts which they baked themselves! After food and fellowship, the students read selected self-written poetry. We culminated the celebration with a message to mothers from Kid President.

We thank the mothers and grandmothers for their attendance at our Tea.
We love you!
