Please share novel study assignments and dates with parents for Tuesday


***The above note is what is is on the homework board.  To expand on this thought, we started a new novel study today.  The theme is survival in the wilderness.  Over the next several weeks the students will each be reading one exciting book and complete a number of assignments.  The students have the due dates of all of the assignments.  Ample school time will be given every day to work on the assignments (how many times can I work the word assignments into this blog?).  I look forward to seeing the work each student does as we move forward.

Update

Hello:

I noticed on a newsletter that went home to youngest and only children that photo money will be accepted on Monday.  Originally the deadline was Friday, but that is a Pro-D, so if you didn't see it in the notice, just be aware that you can get the money in on Monday, too.

Thanks

Tuesday 16 October


Remember the change in the planner expectations.  I've put an asterisk by anything that is new that day.  Students do need to write that down today.  Every other item has been up there for at least a day and I'm good if they've just written the assignment in on the day it is due.

Please return Parent-Teacher time forms asap (I also sent home something today where I'm hoping you can fill in a bit of background information to help shape the interviews.  These forms are also useful as we head past interviews and continue with our year).

Grade 6 Science Quetions p. 7 due Wed.

Grade 7 Science Web due Wed.

Sketch 3 due Monday Oct. 22

French Quiz on colours - Wed and Thurs individual oral exam

Please note a change in the process for writing work in the planner.  Every time something new is put on the homework board, I want the students to write it down that day.  Any day thereafter that it remains on the homework board, I have said they could skip to the day it is due to write it in once to save them time.
