Mr Phipps, an EMCS Counsellor, is coming in on Monday, February 19th to advise and to enter you into their registration system, Career Cruising.
***If you have plans on going to a school other than EMCS, you should still register at EMCS to hold you a spot just in case you are not admitted to your other choice. Given what I am hearing, getting an out of catchment spot at Belmont or Royal Bay is not bankable.
EMCS OPEN HOUSE is Thursday, February 22nd; Grade 8s and their families are encouraged to go to find out about the school and to make connections with staff.
Ski Trip: Tuesday, Feb 13th leaving from JMS at 5 am; BE THERE or BE LEFT BEHIND.
***Students not coming on the trip can come to school; you will be arranged into groups and be supervised by either Ms Lennox or Ms Barnes. If you are behind on Term 2 work, it will be the perfect opportunity to catch up. If your family is extending your Family Day holiday, as I know some of you are, you can rest easy knowing you are not falling behind.
Course Summaries:
English Div 5: You are continuing to present your topics and articles in a Fishbowl Discussion format. You are doing well for what it appears is a first run at this sort of thing.
S.S. Div 3: You took notes on the Battle of Hastings. You will do a Think About It Critical Thinking Challenge tomorrow.
English Div 4: You were given a block to continue to take notes on your article in preparation for fishbowl discussions. Groupings will be selected tomorrow and we will probably have time for one group to start presenting after that.
Math Div 4: You were given a "Translating Math" page to complete and some exercises around algebraic expressions. Tomorrow you will review one step algebraic equations.
Todays word is variable.
