Miss S @ Parkcrest

On Thursday, FEB. 25th we are travelling up to Harper to go to the tubing park.  I am going to suggest wearing helmets.  I have been before and you go awfully fast!  We will NOT be eating lunch up there as we are coming back to school.  PLEASE DRESS WARMLY!  I will not be taking complaints that it is cold.  DRESS WARMLY!

Grade Sevens: Here is your S.S. Marking Rubric.  Check to be sure you are covering all the things you need to cover in order to get a good mark!  You will need to cut and past the below link.

Please sign and return the Math Chapter tests.  The corrections are for homework: DUE WEDNESDAY.

Our school is having a competition…CHAMPIONS OF THE FOOD BANK!  We can win a trophy if we are the reigning class.  Please bring in donations for the food bank into class.  Needed items are:

• Cereal
• BABY FORMULA
• Canned meat
• Peanut Butter
• Granola Bars
• Kraft Dinner
• Canned Soups
• Pasta Sauce
• Muffin Mix
• Sidekicks
• Tuna

February is a notoriously difficult month for the Food Bank.   Please donate generously if you are able to our community in need!

Please remember you need to have skates and a helmet for FRIDAY!

Just a reminder that this Thursday is our Chapter Test on Percents.  If you need help with something please see me before Thursday!  Remember: you EARN your marks, I don’t give them to you.  You are responsible for your own learning.  I will be calling for groups that want extra help to see myself or Mrs.Hauer Tuesday and Wednesday, so if you are unclear on something, you need to take advantage of that extra help!

Mrs.Poelzer informed me some of you were accessing the wrong wiki, ones that aren’t yours.  Stop that.  You don’t want to mess with other people’s hard work.  Mrs. Poelzer can see EVERYTHING you do when you access the Wiki.  You cannot pull one over on the Technonlogy Master.

Dearest Lovely Class,

I am not feeling well, but have booked a lovely teacher to come and be with you today.  I hope you make me very proud and that I get a good report when I come back from Ms.Howarth.  Good luck trying to keep Ms.Howarth and Ms.Hauer straight. 

Remember, you can’t stand up for Homework Check unless you got your parents to sign your tests and they are put in your portfolios.

Your homework tonight is whatever you don’t finish in class today:

• Math pg 161
• Lit Circles

“The Nickname Game” needs to read 2 Chapters each night. (3 and 4)
Cody, Talia and Spencer are to read “James and the Giant Peach” (behind my desk).
Emily, if you couldn’t get the book from the library, somehow we’ll have to share with Kayla until I can wrangle you one from somewhere.

Have a great day everyone!  Make me proud!

Miss S

The Chapter test on Percents will be next Thursday, February 4th.  The average for the Percent of a number quiz was very good, so I think we are ready to move on.  Please remember to study for this chapter test!

I was very impressed today with the Grade 6 Multicultural presentations.  We got to sample fudge from Brazil, hear music from Mexico and Ireland, eat French truffles, see a can of escargos!  We also had a football player give one of the presentations!  I was very proud of all who put a lot of effort into their projects.  We all learned a lot this morning.  The marking sheet is being sent home for parents to sign. Well done everyone!
