Continue working on research for narrative piece.

Remember - Narrative Writing: 

• You must choose an inanimate object (like a pen, pair of shoes, or a hockey stick) or an animal as a main character for your story.
• You must place them in a situation with someone famous who received credit for something (i.e. like Sidney Crosby’s hockey stick or skates)
• You might need to do a little reading on famous people.
  Canada’s Walk of Fame
  Famous Canadians
• Example we read in class: Ben and Me

First Nations Wikis

Hi Everyone,

I’m hearing stories from Mrs. Landsberg that many (most?) of you don’t have very much posted on your First Nations Sites.  Her class is almost finished.  You need to get on it!  They are due next Friday and I know she’ll be checking in on you on Monday.  You can work on these from home.

Congratulations Junior Volleyball Players!

I heard the news from Mr. Kaufman and Mr. Congram.  Congratulations on beating Regency Acres to become the champions!  Great work!

Yes, I wore a kilt…

Thanks to whomever uploaded this picture.  Happy belated Robbie Burns Day!

Math Play and Practice

Just in case you decided to study for the test tonight…

Here are the links to the review pages on the BBC Bitesize site:

• Mean, Median, Mode and Range
• Types of Graphs

Don’t forget that I will have at least one question with a Stem and Leaf plot on it (perhaps even asking you to find the median and mode from it).
