Grade 7 Weekly Planning Sheet
Tuesday, Oct. 15th to Friday, October 18th 
Spanish Project: due on Friday, Oct. 18th
LEAF DAY! All conditions seem to indicate that this festivity will occur on Wednesday!  This day is best experienced with boots, gloves and maybe even a toque.  Dress warmly!
HCS Fundraising Art Gala Friday, Oct. 25th -  Students are asked if they could please donate one piece of Art Work they have created that they would be willing to have people purchase to raise money for the school. These Art pieces need to come in ASAP! (Monday, Oct. 21st at the latest)
Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA’s) I will be preparing students this week and we will complete these assessments next week from Monday to Thursday.  Remember to check out this website for more information: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/education/administration/kindergarten-to-grade-12/assessment/fsa-parent-brochure.pdf ) As there is no studying required, the best thing you can do for your child to help them is to make sure they are getting adequate sleep, a good breakfast before school and a healthy lunch to eat at school.  No one need be anxious for these!   
P.E. Weekly Challenge:  How did students do abstaining from any kind of pop or super sweetened drink last week? This week, students will complete a sleep diary that gives information about their sleep.  We will be watching this 7 minute video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9Nd6u39yD0&t=33s)to start us off by emphasizing the importance of sleep in our daily lives. 
Novel Study: Chapters 9 -12 are due on Friday, Oct. 18th . Now, students just need to finish reading the book and then complete a Final Project (suggestions on blog as well as sent to students in email) which will be due on Monday, October 28th. 
Math: (continued from last week) We will keep working on graphing the results of our Five Minute Frenzies and parents should receive letter along with their child’s graph to show their progress.  We will continue with graphing as we learn about the Coordinate (Cartesian) Plane.  We will be practicing with the following exercises on a program called, IXL.  Students will have their own accounts. 
Grade 7 – R.1 Coordinate Plane Review,

Bible :  Scripture Memory for Friday, Oct. 25th morning - Hebrews 4:12  For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
