Week of December 3 -7, 2018.

Thursday HW
The events at Western Technical School really had a big effect on my class this afternoon.  We spent a considerable amount of time attempting to calm and settle the nervous, anxious feelings that more than half of the class was experiencing.  I reminded the students that they were safe, and that we were trying to pursue our normal activities.  Many were very concerned about siblings and neighbours that might be in harm's way.  We practiced some relaxation strategies.  It would be a good idea to discuss the issue and coping strategies at home with your children as a follow-up.

As a result of these events, some of the goals we were trying to meet today were set aside.  Principally that had to do with our Literature Circle and Story of Stuff work.  I will extend our class time as much as I can to accommodate the situation.

1.  S.O.S. research is ongoing.
2.  Return Extended French form (Blue page) with a Yes or No response.
3.  Food Drive items are rolling in!  Please consider contributing.  Toy Drive is also underway.

Wednesday HW
1.  Our Behind The Door story is due on Thursday, December 6, by 8 AM.  TURN IN to the Google Classroom, rather than share with me.  We've had ample time to plan, compose and receive peer editing on this story over the last two weeks in class, often using laptops.  I don't anticipate this being a major source of homework.  I will print copies of the stories at school as needed.
2.  S.O.S. research is ongoing.
3.  Return Extended French form (Blue page) with a Yes or No response.
4.  Test packs were handed out Friday.  They are due (to my white bin) with a parent signature and corrections by Thursday, December 6.
5.  Book report #2 is due in class on Thursday, December 6.  If your book is not finished that would be a priority this weekend.
6.  Food Drive items are rolling in!  Please consider contributing.  Toy Drive is also underway.
