Week of March 19 - 23, 2018

** FYI:  We are still awaiting approval of our trip forms for Camp Couchiching.

** FYI #2:  We are 10 weeks away from writing the EQAO assessment.  Students need to be present in class as consistently as possible and make up for absences due to illness, appointments, or travel outside of regular class periods.  I cannot catch the kids up while I'm working on the current day's lesson.


Thursday HW
1.  MMS page 132-33
2.  20 minutes of reading
3.  Read and take notes that you sort in a Google doc on the Africville clips.  Use these notes as a historical basis to write a news article about this Canadian community.  You get to choose the perspective.  Samples are shown on the Google Classroom.  Due this Friday.
Students can make appointments with me before school, at lunch or after school outside my regular help times, but they cannot arrive without prior arrangement.  

Wednesday HW
