Bonjour,
Just a reminder to continue to be reading White Jade Tiger in preparation for Monday's Literary Circles
Maths: If you would like to challenge the ratio quiz by taking it on Thursday instead of Monday, do a bit of extra review. Thursday is slated to be a review day with the quiz being on Monday. We will go over more word problems involving equivalent ratios mainly. Any ratio posters not yet completed should be handed in.
Make sure you are on track with Social Studies project and Science project presentation!
