Hello parents and guardians,
We have been very busy learning about properties of flight. We are about to start researching famous historical pilots and inventors of flight.
One of our experiments requires the use of hair dryers to heat air to create flight. If you have a hair dryer that you would be willing to send, that would be great.
We are also getting very close to the Grade 8 Farewell. The grade seven students will bring home a note about today or tomorrow about our roll in the event. I will include it in this blog post as well.
A few notes were sent home yesterday about our trip to Pike Lake and a preregistration note for next year. The preregistration really helps us to have much clearer picture of student numbers for next year. This helps with staffing.
The grade 6 students have been working on the division common math assessment. This assessment will be used to help inform the division and staff as to how we can better meet the needs of students. Students are told that this assessment counts towards their final grade so that they make their best attempt at each questions. I will use the assessment as a guideline for their final term three mark, but it will only be a small portion of their final grade. Unit tests and daily work will be a large component of their final mark.
Here is the grade 7 letter that will be sent home today (or tomorrow if your child is away at the track meet).
