Happy Halloween, everyone. Thank you to all the parents (and in some cases children) who contributed towards our party. I was approached on Friday to ask if we could have one. I said it's pretty short notice, but if you can pull it together, so be it. And that is exactly what the kids did. Well done.
1) Defender Qs due Friday
2) Personal Inventory due Tues. Nov. 8th
3) 3-D sketch due Mon. Nov. 7
4) Please sign both Math tests for Wednesday Nov. 2 (I just got the tests back to the kids today, and thought it rather mean to have them signed the day after Halloween).
I need to test a few more kids in French - that will happen over the next two days

Tuesday 18 October
There is no homework due tomorrow. I think the kids will be plenty tired after the performance tonight. Plus they have another one tomorrow. I would ask that those kids who didn't complete their late work get that addressed as soon as possible, however.
One bigger announcement:
There will be a Math Unit Test next Thursday (Oct. 26). I will incorporate one review period into next week, but it is important that the students begin studying for this as soon as reasonably possible (IE: likely not tonight). The test will include everything we've done so far this year including but not limited to: Factors, GCFs, Multiples, LCMs, Rules of Divisibility, Prime and Composite #s, Scientific Notation, Classifying #s

Friday 14 October
So little homework this weekend.
1) Math p. 117 is due Tuesday
There are a number of students who owe me old work. I do hope they can take this opportunity with such little official homework to get caught up.

Thursday 13 October
My sincere apologies for not writing for two days. I have been having internet connection problems at 3:00 both days.
1) Sketch 2 is due Friday
2) Math p. 115 is due Friday
***the first two were switched from Thurs. because I am missing 11 kids to We Day today
3) Painting on Friday (assume we are until we fully switch to another project, which will be very clear to the kids when it happens - but it's never a bad idea to have an older shirt here just in case)
4) French quiz Thurs (We kids on Friday)

Friday 7 October
What a busy day! Seriously, the kids were busy practising for the production much of the day. I truly hope you can come in a few weeks to watch the play. The kids sound so amazing!
Here is what is on the homework board:
1) Sketch #2 - 2-D shapes due Thurs.
2) Math p. 109 due Tues.
3) Math p. 115 due Thurs. (because some kids didn't get much time to work on it due to their involvement in the play
4) French Quiz on the #s to 40 on Thurs. - there will be NO spelling of the French word for this quiz. I will just say a number or write a number in French and the students will have to write the correct numeral.
Of course, as I assigned this work it was brought to my attention that I will be losing about 11 students on Thursday to We Day, so those students will have to turn their work in the next day.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I look forward to seeing all of your kids on Tuesday.

Monday 3 October, 2011
Here is what is on the homework board right now:
1) Sketch #1 - the line - due Wed
2) Math p. 105 due Thurs.
3) Canned good drive continues all week
4) Pumpkin scooper (safe) for Thursday - only if you have one; our class will be helping a much younger class with a Thanksgiving project.
Also, I am in the process of getting Grade 7 hoodie orders ready. Your child has had the chance to try different sizes on, but encourage them to think about their sizing carefully - get it a little bigger; they're all due for a growth spurt this year.
