"EUREKA!" Admittedly, I don't recall if any student actually shouted it out this week, but there certainly were some "a-ha" moments in our class. Students successfully designed and executed their own experiments this week, as well as recorded their observations and made inferences.
We also continued our discussions on residential schools. As part of a reading task, students were provided with sections of the original Indian Act. Their active reading (underlining, circling, asking questions in the margins, etc.) helped drive rich classroom discussions and more questions.

Happy new year one and all! We have leapt back into the school year with full gusto. We have had some very busy early days.
