This week in learning:

MATH:  quizzes have been returned to students. I do not ask for quizzes to be signed, but tests do need a signature. We are working on positive and negative numbers and where they fall on a number line, comparing them. There will be a test on Module 2 next Wednesday October 11th.

SOCIAL: we are working on nominations for candidates for grade 6 Student Council, as well as informing ourselves about the candidates for the municipal election. We are voting for Calgary elections on October 12 and/or 13th. The ballots are on their way.
All students have been assigned a date to do current events and must do so on their date. Current events must be about government, whether, municipal, provincial or federal. 

FLA: a study on comic books was due last Friday. I have not received all of them yet. Due dates are to be strictly adhered to.
