Thank you for your nice comments about missing me yesterday.

The final math test on Area/Perimeter of circles is on Friday. It's really important for you to be at school on Friday because we will be making the final arrangements for Claymation. The people from Claymation will be in on Monday and it will be a full day of filming.
Two people will be presenting their Booktalks on Friday also. The rest of you will be presenting on Tuesday or Thursday. I won't be at school on Wednesday as I will be at a workshop at U of T.
Remember to bring in your $5 gift for the gift exchange. Next Friday will be a fun day! You can bring in treats if you like.
See you tomorrow

I missed you all today

I'm not going to be at school tomorrow. I'm working at U of T on an exciting unit involving new technology. I hope to be able to share this unit with you in the spring. I'm really hoping that you'll be on your best behaviour for the supply teacher. There are math review sheets being handed out and the test will likely be on Friday. Make sure to bring in food for the food drive. The booktalk presentations will start on Thursday. You have to be at school on Thursday morning by 8:45am at the latest. I'll meet you at the front doors. We'll be leaving for our tour of Marc Garneau by 8:55am. We won't be able to wait for latecomers...sorry. Please relay this message to your classmates incase they don't read my blog. Look forward to seeing all of you on Thursday.

Homework:

Complete Booktalk for Tuesday.
Complete 2 math worksheets. If you are having difficulty with the math, try to do the chapter review test on page 173. The answers are in the back of the book. You can bring any questions you don't understand to school on Tuesday and I will go over them.
Most students will be absent on Monday for EID. We will not be learning anything new but for the students who will attend, it will be a review day.
The final math test on Area and Perimeter will be on Wednesday or Thursday. This depends on the number of students still absent on Tuesday for EID.
Claymation is coming up on December 15th. We will be working on the storyline and clay figures on Wednesday.
Have a wonderful long weekend. Happy EID.
And to those of you who will be writing the TOPS exam...good luck and remember...it's not a race. GO OVER YOUR WORK AND OVER YOUR WORK AND OVER YOUR WORK, then hand it in.
