Raiders News:
It’s been another busy and exciting week at Riverview Middle School! Here’s a snapshot of the great learning and activities happening across our school:
In the Classroom
Grade 5 students went on an adventure around the school, completing tasks and challenges to learn about the coureurs de bois in Social Studies.
Grade 6 students are exploring the solar system, learning about geosynchronous orbits, and researching Canadian Olympians.
Grade 7 Science classes took a deep dive into the Particle Theory of Matter, exploring the fundamental building blocks of our world. This is the perfect lead-in for next week, as students begin applying their scientific inquiry skills to the highly anticipated Martian Project!
Grade 8 students are wrapping up their Body Systems projects and are preparing to present next week.
