Light and Optics Unit Review

March 15 Update: Since the Alberta government has cancelled all classes for the following week, you will of course not be writing the science tomorrow. You will still be writing it at some point in some form, possibly when all students return to class or as a take-home test. Please check the blog and your emails for updates for when that decision is made.

Hello grade 8's!

Pi day was definitely eventful today and we may have seen the start of the Badr vs. Lockyer war... Payback will be on its way.

I know there are concerns about COVID-19, but it stands right now that we will still be writing the science test on Monday (as we've been talking about for weeks). Be prepared. I know all of your team sports have been cancelled so that should provide ample more studying time. To prepare you should review:

Stay clean, wash your hands, spend time with your family at home and if you are not feeling well on Monday, stay home.

Mr. Badr

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...
