May 13, 2016

It's Friday the 13th with a full moon! Don't walk under any ladders, cross the path of a black cat, or break a mirror, otherwise you'll have some bad luck. Ha, superstitions are funny.

On this Friday the 13th, our classroom time was minimal as we began the day with our final Mass of the year. The gym smelled amazing from all the lovely flowers present to honor Mary and all you Mother's for Mother's Day.

Following Mass, we completed the spelling test and reviewed yesterday's fraction homework.

The rest of the day was specialty classes and electives.

HOMEWORK:
1) Math worksheet - a review sheet from yesterday's lesson
2) Persuasive Essay - please have your Opening paragraph and Closing paragraph completed (if you haven't already finished it). We will continue to work through the rest of the essay next week. For a guide, you can refer to p. 437 in your English text.

Spelling Words for the last Spelling Test
lever, inclined plane, pulley, fulcrum, compound machine, wheel-and-axle, wedge, screw, equivalent, length, halves, bookmark, fortune, width, poetry, grasshopper, summer, vacation, graduation, Canada

NOTICES:
  • Final Exam schedule and study guides have been handed out (some guides are double-sided)
  • Monday - Awards Presentation for each class during Assembly 
  • Final exams will begin next Thursday
  • May 25 and 26 are half-days where students will write 2 exams in the morning, and go home at lunch time
  • We have one last test before finals, but it is the spelling test next Friday.
Have a great weekend. Enjoy the sunshine.

Mr. Yaremchuk
