If you want to increase your grade than please reach out to your teacher. Health Assigned By: Erin O~Leary Google Meet session scheduled for Wednesday May 20 at 11:30am The link will be posted in the google classroom 10 minutes before the meeting. The agenda is linked in the google classroom now. Next topic: Puberty May 13, 2020 Language Arts Assigned By: Craig Squires Hi Students and Parents, Hoping everyone is doing well as we adjust to a new norm for the unforeseeable future. Just want to reiterate to everyone that ZOOM Meetings will continue to take place twice a week: Tuesdays and Thursdays @ 12:00 noon for grade 8's. Work will continue to be assigned via Google Classroom. We just finished the novel, 'The Outsiders', in grade 8. All assigned work that students attempt will be graded. Should a student's average remain the same or improve it will be entered in PowerSchool. Should the mark decrease one's average it will not be entered. Please keep in mind that learning will continue and the curriculum in the English course will be covered. The goal for doing such is to give each student every advantage as they transition into the next grade. A number of students have been active and participating in both the video conferencing sessions and completing assigned work via Google Classroom. Some students have not been active on video conferencing but are doing assigned work on Google Classroom. Both are acceptable and beneficial for students. However, if a student is not participating in any form of educational activity - for example the core subjects (math, science, English, social studies, French) they may put themselves at a disadvantage: 1) not participating results in student not being able to improve one's average 2) students at risk of failing or currently not passing have an opportunity to do assignments to improve one's mark. There are students who need to engage and they are not. Parents are urged to check with their child(ren) to ensure they are engaged and active with their academics. Teachers at MDJH have been posting regularly on Google Classroom. May 6, 2020 Art Assigned By: Craig Squires Zoom Meeting Thursday, May 7th @ 12:00 noon. Any questions regarding the novel, 'The Outsiders' should be asked at this time. Will post a new comprehensive recovery assignment for grade 8 English students. Ten days to complete from posting. Great opportunity to improve English average and to continue with learning. May 5, 2020 Health Assigned By: Erin O~Leary Posts in google Classroom for Mental Health Week 2020! https://mentalhealthweek.ca/ April 29, 2020 Mathematics Assigned By: Amanda Glynn I have been posting 2 assignments (worksheets) per week with solutions on Google Classroom.
