Course Selection, Innovation Fair Prep and HW Reminders

Hi everyone,

Thank you Block 1 for being so great for Mr Hoskin today!  I hear you all worked really well together and I am looking forward to reading your revised paragraphs.

Block 1: Course Selection Fair Post  - due Friday on your group blogs

Today your task was to peruse some of the options available in grade 9-12 as electives.  Now you are to post 3 elective courses you might be interested in the future, why are you interested and where or who can you see for more information?
(PS  You don't need to feign interest in Law 12 or PDD 9-12…. Unless of course you are truly interested in the fabulous courses that they are ;)

Block 4:  reminder that tomorrow I expect you to be superb for my TOC as I am away at a a district meeting.  Flex time tomorrow will not be available unless you ask the TOC and she allows it.  If you need a space and quiet to work, try the LST room at 11:30.  They are open for everyone.

Thursday (tomorrow), you will be spending a lot of your time in class on your written paragraphs (narrative, persuasive, explanatory, and descriptive).  Ensure that you have all your process with you (brainstorming, outlines and rough draft).

Good copies of all your work will be stapled in separate booklets and handed in on Friday.  Good copies should be written in blue or black ink or typed.  Remember - we do not have printing at school so make sure if you type you are able to print at home - if your printer runs out of ink or is not working,  write or print out by hand.

Both Blocks:  Innovation Fair starts on Friday!  
                               It is finally here!!!

What do you need to bring and be prepared to do?

1.  Bring your Humanities binder with work to hand in.
2.  Bring your approved Innovation Fair Proposal and any materials you may need to begin working.  Yes, you may need to bring your own technology.  We will have access to some, but it may be limited.  

Friday - assembly for course selection and Innovation Fair Showcase Skills.  Pay attention to both!  

Gr 8s - block 3 (9:40)
Gr 9s - block 1 (12:10)

See you Friday!

  1. Hi Ms.Lees for some of the paragraphs (in the paragraph booklet) there were two exercises. The substitute told me just to do one exercise out of the two, for the good copy. Is that fine or should I do both.
