Thursday November 14, 2019

Good evening everyone!

Progress Reports - Have gone home.  You would have received two copies - one to keep, and one to return signed.  We ask that you also send back the envelope, as we reuse these.  Thanks so much.

Student-Led Conferences - Are on Thursday evening and Friday morning.  You can sign up for a meeting time on Edsby.  If you are having any difficulty or would like to book a different day, or arrange a telephone discussion, please let me know.  I look forward to meeting with everyone :)

Math- Please go on the Math Google Classroom page and create a copy of the Fitness Tracking document.  You need to then post your fitness results from DPA today.  You do not need to fill in the Beep Test, but please do the stretching task I shared with you in class.  For the stretching task, please remember that you measure with negative numbers if you cannot reach your toes, and positive numbers if you reach past your toes.  (Due Monday)

Literacy - Have your favourite 2 spoken words completed and ready to present to a small group of classmates (due tomorrow).

Social Studies - The remainder of the question packet we did in class is due Friday.  (Due Friday)

Health - If your "tree" is not yet up on the class bulletin board, please make sure you get it to Mr. Carr by tomorrow.  Thank you :)  (Due)

Art - The following links can be used for the art tasks.  You can choose which one to do, or you can choose to do both.  (Due Wednesday)

Below are some links to texts which promote mindsets that we are seeking to develop in our  class this year in order to enhance our learning experiences.  Each text is a teacher writing to their student in an effort to provide encouragement.  I hope you enjoy them.  Please let me know what you think :)  

I encourage you to share and discuss these with your parents.  In order to view them, I believe you will need to be logged into your Google Apps account.

1.  Adding to your bank account
2.  To the student who just got an answer wrong in class
3.  To accomplish, you must first become
4.  School improves your passions
5.  The way school improves your passions
6.  Are you committed to your success?  Prove it, and you'll be glad you did!
7.  Why growth is fun!













Have a great evening,


Mr. Carr
