Feb. 3rd ELA
We are done in-class work on the descriptive paragraph. These will be ready for Peer Conferences first thing tomorrow, and Final Drafts should be done by the end of the day Thursday. They can be hand-written.
Feb. 3 - New Semester for High School
We're just starting ELA20 for the second semester. We'll do some work around the Writing Process, and do a little introductory assignment, but nothing too heavy to start. Since our themes deal with recollections of childhood, we'll also plan a day to visit Gillen to jump start some memories from our youth.
We will start USSR (Un-Structured Silent Reading) in class today for the first 10-15 minutes. Bring a book or magazine with you.
SCI6a - We will finish our MovieMaker projects today and grade them in class. If we want to post them to YouTube, we can do that as well.
HEA7 - We're continuing with our 3rd Unit. Be sure your notes are up to date and with you. If you have no materials for class, I'll be sending you back to your lockers to get them - no exceptions.
Just 7 more school days until the break!

Accounting 10 Exam
The exam is scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 26th at 1:00 p.m. The 2 students in grade 12 will write it the same day except at 9:00 a.m.
1. Complete the review and bring it with you.
2. Get cheatsheets done and ready to use (the 4 tips on finding errors might be especially useful)
3. ALL work must be submitted for marking by Thursday, Jan. 28th at 3:30. After this cut-off, it will be marked as a 0.
4. You will have lots of time to complete the question as long as you know what you are doing - thtis means if you're putting off the review to finish older assignments, you will probably not have time to learn this as you go. DO THE REVIEW FIRST, then catch up on other work.
That is all. This will be easy after you've completed the review and if you can find mistakes as the are made.

Accounting 10
We're getting close to Exam time, but there's a Unit Test first. Complete your spreadsheet from 8.5 and then move on to review chapter 8. The test will be Monday.
After this test, we will do review for the exam the rest of the week. You mat be looking for time to finish undone assignments, but the review is most important - the Exam counts as an entire Unit on its own! That said, any work not handed in by Thursday January 28th will get marked as a zero, so get at it!
