Interviews

Just a reminder that I will be at the school today from 3:30-5:15 and available to meet with you. If today doesn't work, email me and we can set up a time before or after school Mon-Wed in the next couple weeks. If you are looking for me today, I will be in Dan Gallays room from 3:30-4:30, and Tara Schecks room from 4:30-5:15. If you would like to meet with me, you can find me there!

K, 1, 2/3 and 7

Dear Parents,

As we come up to 3-way conferences tomorrow and Friday, it is a time to celebrate the learning of our students, as well as ask any questions or address concerns that you might have. My work days are Mon-Wed, but I will also be available at the school this Thursday from 3:30-5:15pm. If you wish to meet with me then, or to schedule a meeting for a later date, you may email me. There is a contact field on this blog, or you can email me at zredpath@gscs.sk.ca. 

Alternately, you may call the school and leave a message with Mrs. K at the office, and I will return your call as soon as possible. I am often not in my room (teaching Phys Ed), so leaving a message with Mrs. K is usually better than transferring to my extension.

Gr 7 unit exam

As a major heads up, the science unit exam for chemistry will be Monday April 27th. That is over a months notice. There is a lot to review, so this should give ample time for studying. There will still be another lab report before then. Also, any extra credit assignments need to be turned in on the date of the unit exam.

Gr 7 rewrite

The science quiz rewrite is tomorrow. Here are the answers to the practice sheet (notice the corrections).

Gr 7

The science quiz last week had mixed results with some students doing very well and many receiving 1s and 2s. Ask you child how they did. I have offered students with 1s and 2s to take a retest this Wednesday, as well as to meet with them to reteach the concepts as needed. There are a few students who have chosen not to retest despite poor scores. If you are concerned that this might be your child, you can ask them or email me directly and I can let you know how they did. 

Lab report due date has been extended to tomorrow. 

We will be continuing our robot art project on Wednesday. Several students were lacking materials today despite having more than a week notice. They are to bring boxes or other discarded items to fashion into a robot prototype. They will have an hour and a half on Wednesday in addition to the hour today, and then unfinished projects will be homework. Due date to follow. 

As always, please contact me with any questions or concerns :)
