Monday, January 27^th  to Friday, January 31^st , 2020

Weekly Challenge – How did the Negativity Fast and Positivity Feast  challenge go?  This week’s challenge is to refrain from touching other  people unless it is an obviously encouraging contact such as a high 5, friendly handshake, gentle pat on the back or a caring hug to a family member.  This means no headlocks, pushing, grabbing, tackling, etc. The repercussions of doing this is an immediate 5 push ups right there on the spot.  Yes, this is an odd challenge, and won’t be a difficult one for some (they could pick a different challenge if they want), but as the class knows, an excess of physical contact is a habit many in the class have had for a long time, and it will be interesting to see if they can recognize how much they do it and hopefully, after this week, realize that they can survive a day or two without body slamming a friend.

Gr. 7 Basketball  Practice – Boys practice Wednesday, Jan. 29^th from 3:15 – 5:00.

Elementary Chapel – Wednesday, Jan. 29^th is the last time that grade 7’s will be attending Elementary Chapel until our “Graduation” Chapel in June.  We will be starting to join the Secondary Chapel starting Thursday, February 6^th.  We will be transitioning more and more into all things Secondary as this second half of the year progresses. 

Science Lab:  Thursday, Jan. 30^th   While the Secondary is on Midwinter Retreat, we are going to use the Science Lab for the full day on Thursday.  This lab is very hands on and can’t be duplicated, so please try to keep any appointments away from this date as participation and attendance is of utmost importance.  Plus, it’s going to be really FUN and memory making!

Google Slide Project:  Students have been working on making a google slide presentation on a noteworthy person who is a good role model.  We will start to show these presentations on Monday, January 27^th.  They should all be finished by Wednesday, January 29^th at the latest. 

Math Test on Multiplying and Dividing Fractions  - Friday, Jan. 31^st. There will be a review booklet going home to practice for this test. 

Typing Lessons:  Students understand they are to have completed all 100 lessons by the end of January and here we are!  There are 9 students who are NOT finished so please ask your child if they are one of these 9. 

Art Project:  This isn’t due until March 3^rd, but it’s a good idea to choose a project really soon so you will have time to collect supplies and work on it over the next month.  (Details of this assignment are on a blog post entitled “Art Project”)
