jeudi le 5 mai 2016

Bonjour,

Celebration of Learning/Student-led conferences: Just a reminder that if parents are planning on coming to the Celebration of Learning and wish to speak with me, I will be here between 4:30-6:20 as I need to leave early for childcare reasons. If you cannot attend during that time and wish to speak with me about something in particular, please email  me to set up a time to chat on the phone or meet in person.

Field trip to Swan Lake: A permission form is going home today for a June 7th field trip to Swan Lake. We will need one parent chaperone who can attend the whole field trip  (9:00-1:15/1:30) and several parent drivers for drop off/pick-up. If you can only do drop off or pick-up please indicate on the form as we still might be able to co-ordinate with another parent driver.

Devoirs:

Several students still need to complete assignments for Fral and Sciences Nat. Please check the white board to see if you have missing work.

Maths: Please complete Question 1 (page 128) and Question 2 (page 129) on the handout relating to Equivalent Ratios. (Hint: they behave just like equivalent fractions...whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other)

Anglais: Please bring a COMPLETED rough draft of your diamond poem on Monday.

A ce soir,

Mme Couture
