Week of March 5-9, 2012

I distributed outlines of the work I plan to do on Thursday and Friday of this week for those students (5) who gave me advance notice of their early March Break departures.  Parents can find these pages stapled in the agendas of the students I spoke with.

Wednesday HW
1.  Math Unit 10 final test on Friday.  Today's quiz was generally done very well.
2.  Junior Hockey finals trip tomorrow.  Bring $5 if you haven't already to cover admission and bus costs.
3.  Test packs due tomorrow with parent signature and corrections.
4.  Wahanowin Health form.
5.  Math HW Book pages 154-55.

Tuesday HW
I checked the Space booklets in advance yesterday and gave every student feedback on areas to improve before I collect them after the March Break.  You can find this information on the first page of each student's booklet at the bottom.
1.  Math Patterning quiz on Unit 10 Lessons 1 and 2 tomorrow.
2.  Math HW Book pages 152-53.
3.  Test packs due Thursday with parent signature and corrections.
4.  Wahanowin health form
5.  Colour of My Dreams mixed media starts tomorrow.
6.  We are going to Varsity Arena on Thursday this week to support the Junior Hockey team in the City Finals.  Permission forms went home today.  The cash only cost of $5.00 covers admission and bus charges.  The turnaround time is short so that may account for the use of bussing.  Our class has three players and a coach participating -- Go Runnymede Go! 


Monday HW
1.  Dialogue test tomorrow.
2.  Math HW book pages 150-51.
3.  Math Patterning quiz on Unit 10 Lessons 1 and 2 on Wednesday March 7.
4.  Math Patterning Unit 10 final test on Friday March 9.  This is a short unit of only four lessons.  Students will have their marked quizzes back in time to use them to help study for this test.
5.  Wahanowin health forms.
6.  Gather ideas, clippings, pictures or other items you can use to make your mixed media point of view representation of "The Colour of my Dreams" poem.  Students have seen a sample and know the size of the finished product.
