Field Trip Forms:  Your child should bring home the new permission form for the Rose Swanson Mountain hike we have planned for Wed September 26th.  We are looking for 20-25 parents to join us for the day, and assist with driving. 

Socials:  Mr. Martin was amazed at how many of his students couldn't identify more than 1/2 of the Canadian Provinces, or state the capital city.  Today in Socials, we worked on creating a legend (a map key) for thier Canada map.  Map skills will be incredibly useful in our Social Studies unit on the Roman Empire and other past cultures.

Math: Mr. Martin's grade 7 boys need to have decorated thier textbook covers for tomorrow

Science:  Both Madamme Wocknitz and Mr. Martin's class have been given a challenge for their Science Safety test.  We are just starting to look at safety in the lab, and we will be looking at measurement, and using the Metric system.  Students who get 100% on the test will get to use their artistic talents to give Mr. Martin a hair cut (Yikes!)

Terry Fox Run:  All students have been challenged to bring in at least $2/person toward this upcoming event.  The class that collects the most money will get the opportunity to throw a pie in the face of the organizing classroom (Mrs. Haywood-Farmer)
