Collaborative Research/Notes via Google Drive Today, the students learned about photography. More specifically, they worked with partners and with the entire class in adding to a collaborative document on Google Drive. They researched, gave their own definitions, and provided example images that displayed each term. The terms included composition, rule of thirds, perspective, depth of field, bird's eye view, worm's eye view, macro, and a few others. The grade 7 students, being familiar with these terms from last year, buddied up with the grade 6 students and went to work teaching them about photography. Tomorrow, the students will start documenting, "A Day in the Life of ME" using an object that best represents their characters, similar to the 'LEGOGRAPHER' images.

MATH 7:
- Complete stock sheet using instructions from class.
- Calculate the total value of each of your 5 stock purchases. For example, simply take the closing price of each of your stocks from Thursday or Friday and multiply it by the number of shares you purchased. You must show all your work on paper. Double check your answers using a calculator. If you do not show your work, you will have to redo it. Write down each of your 5 answers in words using the PLACE VALUE knowledge you learned in class today.
- Add up the total value of ALL your shares! This means you must add up your answers from your multiplication questions. Show all your work and double check your work with your calculators.
- Calculate on paper your highest total value minus your lowest total value.
- If you have any questions, post them here and someone will help you with it.
