Monday 10 September, 2012

1) $8 for planners asap

2) Grade seven sheet (picture, not word search) due Tuesday

3) Please try to get the following items by next Tuesday:
sketchbook (nothing hugely expensive by any means; Michaels has some cheap ones)
dictionary and thesaurus (somehow these were left off the Grade 7 list; again, nothing expensive by any means)
French/English dictionary (this one is optional if you don't want to buy one)

4) First Spelling Pre-List is due Tuesday (usually due on Mondays) This is our spelling program for the year.   The children have been given a crash course on how the program works, but if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

5) Finish A Little About Me oral presentations Tuesday

6) Canada Map due Monday

7) Canada Map quiz on Friday Sept. 14

In addition to these, the students know that on the last day of each week, they will have a Spelling test based on the Pre-List they turn in at the start of each week.  I won't be putting the weekly spelling test on the homework board because it will occur, by definition, every week.  They have the basic idea of how this test will run (seeing as they each have individualized pre-lists) and after the first week, it will seem like old news to them.
