October 14 - 17, 2014

Friday HW
1.  Scholastic orders due Monday.  No cash please.
2.  Choose a six letter word for your password for school computers on the TDSB network.  An example of a six letter word:  "canuck", "fluffy", or "monkey".  You should choose a unique word that isn't one of these, and not tell your friends your password.

Thursday HW
1.  Quiz on multiplication and division on Friday, October 17.  I handed out a practice sheet to each student who was present personally today.  Please use it to help study.  You may want to do a portion of it each night.  Return it in whatever state it is in on the morning of the quiz.
2.  Scholastic orders are due on Monday October 20.  Cheques only please, payable to Scholastic Canada.
3.  Photo Day is next Friday October 24.
4.  A schedule for the five day cycle was handed out today.

Wednesday HW
1.  Quiz on multiplication and division on Friday, October 17.  I handed out a practice sheet to each student who was present personally today.  Please use it to help study.  You may want to do a portion of it each night.  Return it in whatever state it is in on the morning of the quiz.

Tuesday HW
1.  MMS HW book page 33.  I have a practice sheet to send home for multiplication and division tomorrow.
2.  Quiz on multiplication and division on Friday October 17.
3.  Book Report due on Thursday October 16.  Please bring it it in on the due date rather than earlier.  Thank you.
4.  Tomorrow is a Library Period day in the afternoon.  Please return your books to exchange them for new ones.  This is a good opportunity to select a chapter book for DEAR time reading or your next book report.  Too often students have no book to read and we have to select one from my class library instead.  Comic books and graphic novels aren't a good substitute in every such case for reading improvement.  I am encouraging students to select personal interest books that present more of a challenge.
