Hi All,
Today was great- we had our trip to Whole Foods. We all learnt about organic vs. conventional produce, sustainable seafood at Whole Foods, and the 5 step program in their meat department. Whole Foods had lots to offer in terms of healthy living programs as well as a wealth of knowledge on local farming, organic farming, and a sustainable world.
We enjoyed lunch in their cafeteria and our tour guide gave each of the students a take home brown bag filled with organic cereal and an organic granola bar.
We finished our day with a few math mad minutes, exchange rate data and questions, and a speech topic discussion. Speeches will be coming up in February and this year the students are required to do a persuasive speech on a topic of their choice. We are in the process of selecting the topics and I would like to have them nailed down my Monday so that we can begin writing and practicing them.
Tomorrow we have our spelling test on unit 10 along with a wrap on our feature Canadian David Suzuki.
Have a great evening,
Miss Elliott
