Any night that there is NO homework, students should be reviewing what we have already learned. There should never be a night without homework. Reading is also included in this speech!
I am still missing some forms: demographics
internet acceptable use policy
parent survey
Social Studies: students will be given access to Calgary Herald online to help with Current events. Every Social Studies class, 2 people will present a current event that has to do with government, whether municipal, provincial or federal. Students will know ahead of time what their date is to present. Information should not be too far in advance to avoid duplicate information. Here is the log-in information:

Religion: We will be practicing for the school opening mass on Sept 26th @ 10a.m. I will choose readers and everyone sings. We are also looking at the importance of friendships.
Math: We have just finished multiples and will go onto prime numbers, composite numbers and factors. If your child has problems with multiplications...practice, practice, practice.
Fr: we continue with graphic novels, terms, definitions and reading comprehension. This week we will begin a large project that turns a story into a graphic novel.
ELA: we will begin to read "Chasing Vermeer" and working on figures of speech. The book is chock full of them. Grown-up Rule narrative writing is due tomorrow Sept 19th.
Music: everyone should have their genre of music chosen for their research project. We have Chromebooks booked the 19th to work on this.
