Thursday!!

Once again, this week has zipped by!

We are finishing up our novel study in Language and should have the book completely read by next week. The final activity for the novel study will be a student-chosen culminating activity.  We have discussed this as a class, and by next week the students will have chosen their culminating activity.

Culminating activities will be due the second week of February. There will be a gallery walk (sharing of all culminating activities) that will take place the week after. All parents are welcome!

In math, we are winding up our Data Management unit. The kids have a few more activities to complete, and a culminating activity will be handed out early next week. NO quizzes or tests in this unit - just a culminating activity to prove their knowledge of the unit. Patterning and Algebra starts next week.

Information packages for the grade 8 trip went home last week. Registration and payments are sent directly to Evolve Tours.  If you have any questions regarding the trip, please let me know.

Course selection sheets have been handed out to the kids and if parents are wanting to talk to me about the course selection process-  now is the time. Please contact me at school. The kids need to choose and submit all courses BEFORE February 13. Once courses are submitted online (instructions are on the back of the yellow option sheets), there is a print out page that pops up after submission of courses. That sheet needs to come back to school, and I pass these along to the high school.

Upcoming dates :

January 23 - PA Day

January 28 - Health infographics due

Report cards go home second week of February.


Take care,

Miss Waddell
