I will be teaching Grade 8 Math.  The class will include a lecture component and then practice component. Other worksheets and activities may also be used in class. I may use games, slides, video, images, manipulatives to teach the material. I will be using the interactive whiteboard on Zoom so students are encouraged to provide their share their responses using a mouse, in the chat box or using a drawing tablet. Completion of Grade 7 is required for the Grade 8 section. Please note, the curriculum moves very fast.
