Hello grade 10s, here is the worksheet we are using today.

Grade 9s, here’s yours.

Grade 9s you will be getting textbooks tomorrow.

Hi Grade 9s,

It’s been kinda crazy with two snow days in a row.  EQAO has been moved to Thursday and Friday, and with our chapter 5/6 test (I’ll make it a small one) on Monday, we will have only 2 days in class to review.  I have made this checklist to help you get started on your studying tonight and this weekend.

Dear Grade 10s, Here’s a checklist of all you need to know for the exam.  It’s been rough with 2 snow days in a row.  I hope you are working hard.  We will have our test Thursday and Investigation Friday in class time.

We made it to holidays!  Have a safe and happy break.  Remember exams come quickly when we get back.

A class tradition has become having a secret santa gift exchange before holidays.  The emphasis is on making our gifts.  This year there were some very creative presentations, songs, and artwork, baked goods, and inside jokes.  Many thanks to everyone for all the efforts and enthusiasm you brought to this tradition.

We made cookie houses this week and calculated the volume and surface area.

We also worked on making an icing recipe that would stick the houses together well.  We needed to adjust the proportions of sugar and water until it was just right.

Then we added the candy!

Take a sheet of paper and make a tube.  It can be done in two different ways….a tall thin tube, and a short wider tube.  Which one holds more popcorn?

We measuredwe calculatedthen we tested our theories

We brought mathmatical cheer to everyone this week through our math carolling.
