Week of October 29th-31st

Welcome back Grade 6s! 

For the kids who were not here this week, please use the resources in the "Classwork" section to catch up on the following tasks.

1. The Hollow Podcast. 

We have listened to the first 4 episodes, and have been taking notes while listening. There are note-taking examples in the slides, and the links to the podcast episodes are also in the slides.

*** It is VERY important to ensure you keep up with listening and your notes, as our final task for this requires you to have notes on ALL 8 episodes in the end. You will also be confused and not able to answer comprehension questions about the podcast when we finish if you have missed episodes. 

2. Three Levels of Government Introduction

In Social Studies we went through the 3 Levels of Government slides, and took notes. 

We are finishing these notes on Monday. 

It would be good to read through the slides at home, so that it is easier for you to catch up on the notes next week if you are not doing them at home. 

Teachers were unable to access anything online over the last few weeks, and were able to start marking the Social Studies LOST final tests today. These tests will all be done being marked by mid to end of next week. Please check your PowerSchool next Friday (the 7th) in the evening or Saturday morning, to see if you will be offered a rewrite of this test. Although this was an open book test, some of you did not read the questions to see that you needed to use examples from what we learned, not to just express your opinions.
