This week was the last week of school before the Summer break for me and in school, we did some pretty fun things before school was over.
On Monday, we still had to do some work but it was pretty simple like finishing our projects that were due the next day on Tuesday and if I remember correctly we also got to play some games which was fun. I remember I was playing Tetris after doing my art that day. On Tuesday, we did our gallery walk of our space science projects where different groups were given a space related item to research about like the Hubble Space Telescope and Space Food. After a few days of researching, groups put their information on a board and then on Tuesday one of the group members of each group stayed at their board and the rest went around to other groups to gather information about other topics from other groups. That was most likely the most interesting part about Tuesday. During French class, we also got to watch a some of a Mr. Bean movie which was fun. After that, some people also started working on their art if they weren’t finished and then we got to go home.
On Wednesday, we mostly moved some things from our class like desks and replaced them with tables because my teacher prefers tables over desks. We also cleaned out our lockers and had an assembly where there was the last character assembly of the school year and we also said goodbye to a few teachers that were going away from the school for a few years in the future. The next day which was Thursday and also the last day of school started off with an assembly when we said farewell to our Vice Principal and we got to show a video that I helped to make and we also said farewell to the graduating grade 8’s that were going to high school. The rest of the day we got to use laptops to play games or do other things that you wanted to do and also eat some snacks some students brought in to share with the class. At around 12:00 we took everything out of our lockers and put them in our bags and went into to class and our teacher wished us luck in the next school year and then we clapped the grade 8’s out while the were exiting the school and then when the bell rang at around 12:10 we all got to go home and start our summer vacation.
Overall, it was a fun last week of school and I felt like this school year went by quite fast, but it was a very enjoyable year with nice classmates and teachers.
