April 2 - Looking Ahead

Hello everyone!

It's been wonderful to see that so many students are logging on to D2L! We've been noticing students looking at the Light and Optics slides and working on their writing prompts, so good work!

Tomorrow, we are going to have our first Friday class meeting on Google Meet at 10am. An invite code will be sent to your webmail at 9:55am. It is expected that you attend - barring technical difficulties. This meeting will be a little bit longer than our usual meetings since we are still getting up and running.

Two main topics we will cover in this meeting:

  • Tutorial on how to submit assignments from Drive on D2L
  • How to take the Practice Quiz (Tomorrow) and the Science Test (Monday)
One question we had yesterday was about what Mrs. Thornborough is going to do with Band. We talked to her today and she said that she would set up a webpage with an optional weekly activity for Band students to do in order to further their learning and skills. This is NOT a course. It is completely voluntary and does not count towards your 10 required hours of schoolwork each week.

We have also made a slight change to our available office hours to add some variance.

We look forward to seeing you in the AM!
- Mr. Badr & Mrs. Lockyer

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
