Hello students

Just a reminder, tomorrow is casual day!

For my grade 7 French

Today we saw the remaining final presentations of restaurant. You all did a great job. We also saw a video on a Michelin Star chef and how he started his restaurant. Today we look at four questions. Qu’es-ce que les mets du chef? Quand es-ce que le chef a commence sont carrier? Quelle sorte de restaurant a-t-il? Pourquoi es-ce que son restaurant est special? We will look into the response to the questions next class. No homework for today except for two students, you guys know what you must do.

For my grade 12 Math

NO test, due to the hard work you guys have done for the test question. You must still do the review especially number 9. It will be a good thing if you do question 9 from the review on a separate sheet of paper.

 For my grade 11 Physics

Today we worked on our lab, round two. It seemed that you guys had quite a bit of technical difficulties with the technologies. I am glad you guys overcame it. If you guys have any questions about the labs please let me know. I know this is going to be your first lab report with me, as a result I will keep that in mind when I correct it.

Hello students

Just a reminder, to everyone to bring their photo forms back.  Casual day will be on October 26th and picture day will be on the 27^th, full uniform is required.

For my grade 12 Math

The test question is due first thing in class, no exception. I want a hard copy with all rough draft work stapled together. Treat this like a test. It is only one question after all.

For my grade 11 Math

Today we worked on radicals, and how they relate to exponential functions. Hopefully you guys will feel comfortable doing calculations with it. It will come up several times in your mathematical and academic careers.

For my grade 12 Physics

We are moving away from Newtonian physics and making our first steps towards relativity.  The perceptions of the observer has a great effect on the result of force and movements

Hello students

Friday, our homeroom was victorious in our first homeroom challenge! Thanks to Audrey for winning the football throwing contest. I would like to think that it was fortune giving Purple the victory that we deserve with all the hard work we have done.

To my Grade 11s

You guys put a lot of work in the lab today. In spite of the confusing results, I hope your understanding of the Physics labs experience in the lab experiment, gives you a appreciation for the work that scientists do for a living.

To my Grade 12s

I have emailed the entire class the test question. I know it is going to take time to complete; however, I believe in your skills and patience to get it right. Good luck to you all.

To my Grade 7s

We are coming down to the end of our first unit with only two presentations left.  The next unit will be on mysteries. Your summative will be a play (see page 33). Further details will be discussed in class.

A few side notes

Rock band has started - I cannot be more excited. Good effort to our cross country team.

Hello students

I hope all the students taking the literacy test feel some relief with the web site crashing. Be proud of the studying and preparation, and all of the work you have done. It was not for naught. Today I got a chance to be a gym teacher for part of the day, I hope the students enjoyed the manhunt game and western shout out game (It is not as bad as it sounds). Also tomorrow will be the first day of the rock band practice, please remember to bring your musical gear if you have it.

To my French grade 7

Tomorrow we will be doing the remainder of the presentations and reading more of Le Petit Prince, we will find out more about the Prince and where he come from.

To my Math grade 12

I will give you guys the big question. You will have the weekend to solve it all work must on or attach to the paper. DO NOT WRITE in pen. It must be in pencil. Good luck. Take your time and you will be successful.

 To Physics grade 12

We will go over elements of centripetal force and acceleration to better understand the next lab that awaits you - which will be your creation of the greatest Beyblade known to man.

Hello students

Today the Physics grade 12 students dropped some eggs of the roof of the school. They protected the eggs with various devices. They almost had a perfect run with 5 out of 6 devices working. Also parents please be aware that community service forms are going home please sign and return tomorrow.

Hello Students

To my French students, good work today. Today we covered articles and expectations we have for your presentations that are due next class. I am very excited to see what you guys have created. We Read The Little Prince and talk about what happen in the second chapter. Here is where the prince wanted our pilot to draw him a sheep. Do you guys think it was clever how he was able to resolve the issue by drawing a box?

To my grade 11

Next class will be your first lab. Good luck. I hope you feel comfortable with lab reports. If you need any further explanation, feel free to ask tomorrow or in the lab. I want to make sure that you are clear on how to write one, because that is what I am grading you on as your summative for this unit

Good luck for the test tomorrow, you guys should be fine. You all know what to do. There will be no true or false or multiple chose on this so please make accommodations for your studies.

To my grade 12

We are going to work on factoring larger polynomial functions. This will take time and effort on your part. I will go over it as slowly as needed. There is lots of work that will be needed to do. We will go over it in great depth tomorrow.

Have fun and love Math.

Hello students

Today we went to the University of Waterloo. We did a few labs and a tour of the campus. We saw various rocks and minerals. We also checked out some fossils and a miner museum.  Here are a couple of photos.
