Week of March 25-28, 2013

Thursday HW
There is no homework for this long weekend, but a few reminders and updates may be useful.

1.  On Wednesday I handed out the field trip forms for our end of the year trip to Camp Wahanowin.  With apologies, the turnaround time for the initial deposit is somewhat shorter than I'd like.  I appreciate your efforts and good will to help us meet these dates.  We had a lengthy discussion yesterday with the class about the particulars of the camp and its facilities.  We'll watch a video in the coming weeks as well so provide the students with more information.
2.  I collected a fair number of Problems of the Week today.  There are still eleven assignments outstanding.
3.  The cereal box is due in finished form next Thursday.  We've spent six class periods introducing and working on the activity to date.
4.  Thank you to parents and students for their support of the Parent Council's Spring Thaw activity through activity supervision and cake making.  The delivery date for cakes is April 2.  the supervision times on April 3 are 3-4:45; 4:45 to 6:30; and 6:30 to 8.
5.  The test packs I handed out last week were due today.  I will check again for the seven that were not returned today on Tuesday.
