Distracted: The Erosion of Attention...

Science project

Just a reminder to everyone in the système nerveux group to practice their lines for the skit and be prepared to present on Monday!:)

Bullying

Hey, everyone,
I found this website, just to wrap up anti-bullying week, with two stories about bullying. In the second story about Kayla, she thought it was going well with the "popular girls" since they had been nice to her. She then found out one of the popular girls posted something mean and nasty about her. I think we all have to realize that whatever we do, whether on facebook, twitter, myspace or any other social networking application, we have to make sure we take a minute to think and read about what we are about to post and to not be impulsive. If we all did that there would not be cyberbullying. Also, what we post reflects on our character.

Here is the websites url: WEBSITE

Homework

Geography~Migration quiz, sometime next week
French~Dictée is on Thursday on chapter 5, and also the letter, you can start forming ideas for it.

Math

Does anyone (who has the book) know what the last number in the equation on pg.6 q.6 e) is in the math package? I have the photocopied sheets and the number is cut off... =)

My Group

Hey, my group is Maddie(me), Faisa, Parag, and Sofia. So, how do you guys like this, I'll finish the drawing of the appariel locomoto, and you guys will do the script, I think Faisa said she was going to start that to night. Anyway, it's due monday and we need it done. So, you guys, being Parag, Sofia and Faisa, will split up the work and it'll be a brease. Since there is 3 of you guys, each of you can do 2-4 questions on the appariel locomoto and the answers, so it wont be such a big deal. We can ask Mme. Todd/Treitz if we can practice in the hall before presenting. This way, every one is doing something but not too much. It'll be a breaze!

Homework

Here is the homework,

-Music~Body Surfers, keep practicing
-Science~Systems project groups are presenting Monday or Tuesday, so be ready.

Don't forget to bring cans for the food drive or anything else.

I think that's all!

Thank You

Hi everyone I just wanted to say thanks to all the people that post the homework because i don't think they get much recognition. I personally think it is a life saver because sometimes the odd time I might just missinterpret some words of the teachers about homework and to think I have the confidance that these great people will help us all and come through all the time and save us.

THANK YOU
