Study Hall?

Study Hall!…

What’s that?

The teachers running Study Hall are the following:

Mondays: Mrs Cleveland

In Study Hall you can:

  • work on homework
  • finish or work on an assignment or project
  • have support from a teacher if you don’t understand something from class

You may also be directed to go to study hall (from a teacher) occasionally, if the following occurs:

  • incomplete homework
  • missing work or assignments not passed in
  • need for reflection
  • for directed extra support from concepts missed or not understood in class (i.e. you were absent, or need some extra help)

Study Hall is a great space and opportunity to:

“Number Trouble”…wait…it’s only week one!

We kicked off this amazing math year with fun group work this first week of school.

As simple at the activity may have originally seemed, it proved to be more challenging (in a positive and productive way) for the students in six, seven, and eight. #dontstealthestruggle

The activity is called “Number Trouble” by  Sara VanDerWerf. Students have to work collaboratively as a group to find all 100 numbers, and by finding the appropriate solutions, but in order (1, 2, 3, 4…99, 100)

Modelling appropriate and positive group work at the beginning of the year is a fantastic and meaningful way to develop positive and growth mindsets around math, as well as building student confidence in their own abilities and that of the group in which they are participating.

Great first week everyone!

Middle School Homework

Hi Everyone!

This year you will have a grade calendar that will have all of your homework and projects (for all subjects) in one place!

Homework will be placed on the calendar on the date it is assigned. All homework without a due date will be under the assumption of DUE THE FOLLOWING DAY, unless otherwise stated (i.e. a due date linked in place) Projects, Assignments, and longer term homework (i.e. assigned Monday, due Friday) will be on the DUE date.

In addition, you will have a link (when you click on the assignment on google calendar) where you can follow to go back to the subject blog for more information, assignment/homework details, additional links, media required etc.

This information is categorized on the ‘category’ that depicts your homework for information, dates etc. on the right side menu tab under ‘categories’. This will help you find the most current homework (if any) for your grade.

6 Homework 2019-2020
