Earth Day


Our day began with an Earth Day Assembly. One of the exhibition groups from Ms. Jaskolka’s class held a house game to teach students about recycling. This is their action component for their exhibition issue ‘Deforestation’. Well done to Kappa, Zeta, and Theta for placing first, second, and third respectively in the recycling game.

Our academic day began with exhibition. I began by conferencing with students who are behind on their work. We worked on the second session of essay edits. I then began the second round of conferences on slideshows for groups that are up-to-date with their work. These groups again received feedback on how to improve their work. These groups got the ‘go ahead’ to write their cue cards.

We discussed the schedule for Exhibition Day, Friday, May 3rd. Students will need to wear full uniform on Thursday, May 2nd for the dress rehearsal and again on Friday, May 3rd. On Friday, students will need to arrive by 8 am to set up. They will present three times on this day, at 9 am, at 12 noon, and again at 6 pm. We discussed refreshments that will be provided by students. Students have signed up for this.

Mr. Oliver supported students as they worked on their art component during their regular music time. Mme. Stella did the same for the French component during regular French time.

Students are reminded exhibition work must be completed in class and not for homework.

In math, Ms. Joseph took up the review sheets that were assigned for homework. The integers’ unit test will be written tomorrow, Wednesday, April 24th, 2019.

Remember to send in the form and money for the Wizard of Oz costumes. These are past due.

We will be bouldering from 9:30 am – 12:30 pm tomorrow. Tomorrow is Casual Day.
