 Hello everyone!

Please find tonight's homework below....

VERY IMPORTANT - Please ask your family if they are getting my emails that I have sent though EDSBY.  If there is another email that your family would prefer I use, please have them email it to me at jonathan.carr@yrdsb.ca.  Thank you!

Parent-Teacher Conferences Info

Families can now book times for the evening of Thursday November 18th or the morning of Friday November 19th.  Unfortunately we only have 10 minute time slots, so these will certainly go quickly.  Please know that I am very happy to arrange additional times to speak.  A great option is to continue the conversations via email as it obviously allows for greater flexibility in schedules.  

All conferences will be on Google Meet.  The code is the same as when students are learning from home... rhpscarr.  Please come in to the meet and I will invite you into a breakout room once I have completed the parent meeting scheduled prior to our meeting.

I am so thankful for the opportunity for us to meet.  As always, please remember that my door is always open.  I recognize that this meeting is only a 10 minute "check-in".  My hope is that we can check-in with each other frequently.  With all the interruptions in learning over the last 2 years, it is important that we connect as often as necessary in order to support the academic habits and general academic development of your child.

Thank you, everyone!

Jonathan

Homework Checklist- If you are having a hard time getting your homework completed, THIS CHECKLIST can help.  A copy of it is also found under "Important Information" on Google Classroom.

Book Fair - Our time to go and make purchases is Thursday November 18th @ 12:40pm.  If you would like to make a purchase, we can go to the library at that time.  

Literacy - Rough drafts are due.  I encourage everyone to spend more time going and finding good research to use to support your ideas.  You can get these from the Jamboard, the texts we read, and your tracking documents.  All are on the Attitude Unit slideshow.  (Due)

Math - Please review slides 1 & 2 as well as slides 16 & 17 from CLASS JAMBOARD.  Please make sure you understand the difference between finding the probability of one event (i.e, rolling one dice or spinning one spinner), verses two independent events (i.e, rolling two dice, or rolling one dice and drawing a colour cube from a bag).  Come to class with any questions.  Feel free to see me at morning recess for extra help.  (Due Monday).

Health - Please complete the two questions for the "Health Attitude Assignment".  (Due Wednesday November 17th)

Art - Logo Task due Thursday November 18th.  I would like to place these up on the classroom wall (with your permission).  (Due Thursday November 18th).
