Humanities: Week of Oct 15 - Oct 18

Today we started our Edo JigSaw Focus Groups in 8-1 and 8-2!

So far, we've been off to a strong start! Well done those of you who presented today.

Everyone was meant to have their presentation/notes ready for today, regardless of whether or not they presented.

We will attempt to wrap these JigSaws up tomorrow (Weds).

There will be an ELA quiz on Friday Oct 18. 
You'll need to review the following:
- sentence types
- clauses
- subject/predicate
- verbs

Letter to Shogun is due Friday Oct 18. 
- Typed, font 12, double spaced, printed

Reminder: Please come see me prior to any due dates if you feel you will not be able to meet deadlines. Telling me the day of is unacceptable. Typically you are given time in class, so if you're not handing things in, it begs the question -- "What have you been doing?"

We'll be getting into Meiji this week, as well as, starting our exhibit designs.

Thanks!
-Mrs. Lockyer

A Final Message Before The Break

Hello 8's! We both just wanted to send out a final message. Since next week is spring break, we won't be receiving or replying to messages until Sunday, March 29. We have all been working hard over the past few months, so we encourage you to step away and relax. As we mentioned in our post from Monday, this past week was still a school week - albeit from home - but you are now officially on spring break. Powerschool has been updated with this week's assignments that were collected. If anything is reflecting as "missing" or "incomplete," that means that we have not received it. This could be a technical issue, but we encourage you to double check (You all know about Mr. Badr's frustration with some vanishing google doc shares) We know there is a lot of uncertainty about what is going to happen after the break. We can't answer your questions regarding that. Please keep an eye on your emails from the CBE and/or TMC School for messages on any u...
