Week of Nov 12 - 15

Hi Friends,

As you know, we're moving full steam ahead! Lots going on. Lots due this week.

The best way to manage your lives is to make sure you've got dates written down (iCalendars/Agendas, etc), are checking the share folders, and staying in communication with me.

You have been given ample class time (some have used it better than others... you know who you are...) so the Friday, November 15 due date is firm across the board. Obviously, circumstances can arise, but I would need some sort of parent communication should you feel unable to hand everything in.

What's Due Friday November 15?
Checklist:
  • Written Rationale (Japan Exhibit -- refer to criteria)
  • Plaque/Signage (Japan Exhibit)
  • Metaphor + Simile Practice
  • Hockey Hero (refer to criteria)

Hi friends, As you know, Edict responses were due today ! You were meant to have submitted hard copy versions (handwritten/typed) into your corresponding class' drop box (up near SmartBoard). Today was the second opportunity you had to work on your written rationales for the Exhibit artifacts. Remember, EACH STUDENT is required to submit an informative piece of text along with the build, your blueprints, and any other planning documents you may have. I have provided you with some very specific prompts -- please refer your class' Share Folder for this task. You should also be working on your Hockey Hero task, as I will be looking for this to be completed by Weds, Nov 13. Please come chat to me if you have any questions, comments, or concerns :) Happy weekend folks. -Mrs. Lockyer
