November 9, 2012

Period 1--AP 20
Since most of the class was missing for Remembrance Day Service preparation, they were able to use this class to prepare for their portfolios, read their ELA novel, or do some other homework. 

Period 2--AP 30
Mr. Farrel took the students through the assignment for the Prologue.  It will be due on the 19th of November.  A reminder that their Boasts from Beowulf are due this coming up Friday and we WILL be doing them!  Circumstances always seem to conspire against their presentation!  They were given a bit of time to work on the assignment and then they will be starting something new on Tuesday (Monday is the long weekend).

Period 3--AP 10
We didnt' have this class because of the Remembrance Day Service where we honoured the current and verteran soldiers of the Canadian military and the sacrifices they have made on our behalf. 

Period 4--History 10
It was Current Events Day today.  Only two of the four students were ready to go but they afforded lots of opportunity for discussion.  With the time that was left, the students reviewed Elizabeth I and her decision to have Mary, Queen of Scots beheaded.  In the end, the students decided that Elizabeth made the right decision!

I hope everyone has a restful long weeken and that they take a few moments on November 11th and remember the men and women who served over the years for our continued freedom.
