Mrs. Newman May 28
I have heard from some grade 7 students and some teachers and parents who went to the Track and Field meet yesterday about how well the grade 6 team did yesterday. Congratulations, guys!
I have nothing new to add to the homework board for this weekend, other than a heads up that on Monday in math, after taking up homework and having a brief review, students will try a practice quiz on volume to test themselves to see if they understand the material.
We are getting close to finishing the measurement unit, so a test on the whole unit will be coming soon...probably Wednesday or Thursday. Use all your practice quizzes to help you review, as well as the homework packets.
