Students completed an assignment on divisibility rules that was due on Tuesday. If the assignment was not handed in by a student you will see a "missing" and "late" symbol on PowerSchool. I mentioned this is an earlier weekend update but Ii is important that students ensure that they hand in assessments in a timely manner. It is important in Junior High that students start to take ownership of their own learning. If students do not take the opportunity to complete an assessment, they may receive a zero. As well, students may only work to complete tasks in the current reporting period. Therefore, once report cards are issued, marks are locked and zeros will be reluctantly awarded (if you see a grade of zero on PowerSchool students are still allowed to complete this assessment as long as it falls in the same reporting period). Reporting Periods:Term One: Sept 4 - Dec 2; Term Two: Dec 3 - March 31; Term Three: April 1 - June 2.
We have started Unit 3B: Fractions, Decimals, and Percents which will take us roughly into the middle of December.

Students wrote their Unit Exam on Fractions yesterday and today. We are beginning a unit on Square Roots and Pythagorean Theorem on Friday.
If students are ever experiencing any difficulties I am always available for extra help from 12:25 - 12:42. And if students are ever unsatisfied with any of their grades they are welcome to come see me for remedial work during the lunch hour to improve their grades.
And as always, if you ever have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me
