Day 2 - Wednesday, September 29, 2010

Today we started the Canadian Achievement Tests (CAT-4) which are required by the government and our school division for grades 3 and 6 in an elementary school. The 6's did the longest component of the Math today. I was pleased and impressed with the perseverance exhibited by all of the students. Tomorrow we will do the Computations section. There are several Language Arts sections to be completed with Mr. English as well. The grade 3's are also doing these tests. If a student is absent during this testing it is required that it be made up, which will complicate the process of getting everything completed by Thanksgiving, so it is important that you are at school, well-fed and well-rested to be able to do your very best on these tests.

On the homework list is:
Math corrections, Art grid drawing, Science and Social. Some of these assignments are now past due and marks are being deducted by Mrs. David for late work.

Miss Riddell has posted notice of a French test for next Tuesday. Make sure you are prepared for that, too.

Don't forget to mark your calendars for the Fall Fair and Trade Show starting on Friday, October 1st. Some of our 6's have signed up to work on Friday after school. Do your job well.

Enjoy the warm days we are having.
