Hellos Grade 7. Here is your homework for this evening:
Homeroom Business: Those of you who received needles from Public Health did a great job. You are all very brave! Your arm should feel a little sore tonight but you will be just fine. So fine in fact that you should be able to get your homework done!!
Physed- Bring your gym clothes for tomorrow please.
L. Arts- Read for 20 minutes
French- Do a little prep work researching phenomena (a fact or event that can be observed or studied but may be difficult to explain or prove) in one of the following categories:
Natural- ie. the Northern Lights
UFO ( an Unidentified Flying Object) things people have seen in the sky-
Legend- Stories such as the headless nun- is it real or fiction?
I simply want you to know ahead of class a little info on one of these type of phenomena. Choose something that peaks your interest enough that you would like to do an oral presentation on the topic. If you do not have a computer at home maybe you could ask your parent\guardian or a grandparent if they know of something interesting. It can be something that happened in New Brunswick or anywhere in the world. Have fun with this. Maybe I will learn something new? Maybe Maria will have an interesting story from Columbia to share? Have a good evening everyone. We will see you tomorrow. Maria nos vemos manana!

Hello Grade 7. Here is your homework for tonight:
Homeroom Business- Complete and return forms for needles. There are two forms to fill out for girls as they will receive 2 needles. Parents of the boys have one form to complete. These need to be returned to me by Thursday so why not make your parent\guardian a cup of tea and sit down to complete forms tonight!
Math- Pages 273-274 Questions 1, 2 and 4
L.Arts- Read for 20 minutes. This week you need to have 3 entries in your reading log. Also finish the draft copy of your essay
le français- Write a conclusion to your monster story. The recette (recipe) for a conclusion is as follow: An exit phrase such as Voici l'histoire de Shrek or Maintenant tu sais l'histoire de Godzilla. Next you need to write an opinion of your monster such as Il est effrayant or il est mignon or il est bizarre or il est vraiment méchant/gentil and finally you need to ask a question to the reader such as Est-ce que tu aimes ce monstre? or Est-ce que tu connais un monstre bizarre? or Est-ce que tu penses que ce monstre est méchant? or Est-ce que tu penses qu'il est beau/gentil? etc. These are my ideas . I am sure you can come up with one that relates to your monster. Lots of homework tonight. I suggest you make like an egg and get crackin!

Hello Grade 7. Here is your homework for Tuesday, October 11th.
Language Arts- Read for 20 minutes
French- Today I gave you the draft copy of your monster descriptions. I made as many corrections and/or suggestions as I could and included a mark for the draft. You need to write a good copy and add it to the back page where you already have the introduction written. Double space. Try to get this finished tonight. This paragraph should have 5 specific things: You may of course include extra detail if you would like to do so.
______ est un monstre connu.
Il\elle vit ____________
Il ressemble à un(e) ___________
Il/elle mange_______________
Il/elle est méchant(e) parce-qu'il ____________________
Most of you have masculin monsters and won't need the extra (e) or the use of (elle). I think Jesse is the only one who has Nessie, the female monster. Good luck. I look forward to reading these assignments. I hope everyone enjoys a Happy Thanksgiving break with your family. Maria, tener un vuelo seguro. Nos veremos proxima semana.
