Good Morning Division 1!

Shape of the Day – Wednesday – Walk Day for those who have pre-arranged it with me.

8:30 - 8:50am – Record your sleep patterns.

8:50 – 9:00am – Stretch break.  Listen to one or two of your favourite songs and move around.

9:00 – 10:15am – Math – Check the Math Page or try the riddle below:


10:15 – 11:15 – Go Outside.  Be active.  Be mindful. 

11:15 – 12:00 – Science  or  Social Studies – What impact does science have on our community?

12:00 – 1:00 – Lunch Break

1:00 – 2:00 – Language Arts.  Remember to check the Language Arts Page.  The theme this week for Creative Writing is COMMUNITY.  

2:00 – 2:30 – Choice Activity – Grade 7s, we will have an information meeting about Elphinstone next week.  If you have any questions about what secondary school is going to be like, please send them to me ahead of time.  We will give these questions to our grade 8 alumni and they will try to have answers for you by the time we have our meeting.  I will send out the information and guidelines that we must follow on this upcoming meeting once Elphinstone has confirmed a date and time.  Though it may not feel like it, you’re moving on up.  It is likely you are feeling both excited and anxious.  We will try to give you as much preparation as possible.

Check out the Choice Page and design the planner cover for next year!!

Remember to breathe for three minutes.  Focus only on your breathing.  If a thought comes into your head, let it be with no judgment, and then go back to your breathing.  With each breath in and out, remind yourself that it is good to breathe.  When your three minutes are up, enjoy the space you created in your mind.  

You got this!

 Please remember to bring in your reading logs this week!  New ones were handed out today.  Just a reminder that students are expected to read 30 minutes each night in improve their fluency in both reading and writing.  Plus, it is just a good workout for the mind. Please remember that your Ancient Civilization projects are due this Wednesday.  You will have time on Wednesday for finishing touches, but the bulk needs to be complete before Wednesday so you are not left flustered! Jessie Wollen was with us for her last visit.  If you are interested in learning more please visit the following: https://amaze.org @shifteducation If your parents have not done so already, encourage them to make an interview time with you and myself. Just a reminder, you are starting to own your own learning, so it is important to be apart of it!  Your parents can just email me and we can set up a time. Remember: For news of the heart, ask the face! (West African Saying)

Please make sure that if you have not already done so, to return the form outlining the general itinerary and cost/fundraising ideas for the trip to Victoria. Homework: Please complete the Math question with your parent/guardian by Wednesday, April 10th 2019.  Remember that you are meant to complete the question in front of your parent and then walk them through the steps required to do so.  You will want to make sure that your parent signs the sheet as well. Please make sure that you have either started, or are ready to start your science fair experiments.  We will be setting time aside this week to continue to write up your experiment on the laptops for presentation.  The more you complete ahead of your experiment, the less time you will need to spend on this and can then focus on your results and conclusions in the final week.
