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
