Daily Update--Feb.23/11

ELA--Students should have already handed in their third book project. We discussed the fourth and last project for this term, and we have decided that it can be either a book project OR an IRP response similar to the ones they did in the first term. Some students really enjoyed working on those so they have a chance to write one this term. Grammar project will be due either by Friday or by Monday, if anyone needs more time.

Math--We did not have enough time to correct the entire assignment from yesterday, so students should check to make sure it is completed and correct.

SS--Students should start their research on the "Egypt Layered Curriculum" project that was handed out. This can be a partner project if they want to work with someone, or they can work alone. The due date will be approximately March 7.

Science--Students should be looking for and gathering supplies for their design project. Work on the design of the project. The final project is due next Thursday or Friday.

8C--SS--Students should start their research on the "Egypt Layered Curriculum" project that was handed out. This can be a partner project if they want to work with someone, or they can work alone. The due date will be approximately March 7.

8V--SS--Students should start their research on the "Egypt Layered Curriculum" project that was handed out. This can be a partner project if they want to work with someone, or they can work alone. The due date will be approximately March 7.

A letter, permission form, and a waiver form were handed out today for our field trip to the University of Manitoba on March 10. Have the forms and the $15 to the office by next Wednesday. Thank-you!

I informed the students that I will be at an inservice for the next two days. Mrs. Strachan will be their substitute. If they have any questions, they can always contact me. Hope the rest of the week will be productive.
