I cubed update

Hi Everybody,

I just emailed out the document for your reflective google doc writing to support your project.  I am wondering if there might be technical difficulties...I will post the attachment on D2L so you can start this work tomorrow.  Please ensure that you follow the directions and get the file into google docs asap and invite all your group members (and Mrs. Young-Davis & Mrs. Krushel too).

Thanks...hope the file works via email...if not, D2L has it posted as a news item.

Math update

No Math quiz on Thursday...just to be clear...we were a bit rushed at the end of class.

I cubed reminders

Remember that tomorrow is your first build day...please ensure that you have your materials, a fantastic/well organized plan, and a great attitude to roll out smoothly tomorrow.

I am away tomorrow for PARTY with the grade 9s s & so please ensure that you are working hard during Math/Science tomorrow afternoon.  You will have many issues to contend with after your first day of building!!
