Good job....

With your excellent attitudes and your insightful questions. Good thing the bell rang when it did as the rest of the questions all seemed to be written by a certain two small rows....

So, if I didn't get to your question (I had trouble reading some of the printing), or if you have more questions for me, stop by room 302 anytime. I am more than happy to answer them for you or direct you to services.

Now, you have an assignment! Right to the left is the 10 Year Plan! It is due February 22nd but it would be a great idea to start working on it now! Some of you may just need the marks.

See you all soon!

Forgotten Warriors

There are many other films and documentaries on this site- have a search and learn some more!

In honour of Remembrance Day, below is a picture of my Great Grandfather Albert on the day he came home from WW1. I don't think his daughter, my Aunt, remembered him!

Goodbye Planning 10!

A few points to remember before the end of the year!

First- If you are still failing- do any of the assignments to the left that you haven't already done and also the Last Hope Assignment. Hand them all in by June 9th. That's next Friday!

Second- the link to the Test Anxiety booklet is to the left under the Study Help Section.

Third- Here is a link to the great show about Dogs I told you about- The Wonder of Dogs
An excellent de-stressing and informative show! Below is a photo from the show.



Lastly-  Regarding the comments I made during our assembly about my cat Lucille being a jerk, she has demanded asked that I post her side. She feels that her actions keep us on our toes and it is good for humans to know their place. That she wakes us at night as being nocturnal is the natural way. Also, that there is nothing wrong with a good, strong love for shoes.

And seriously, as I write this Lucille is trying to sit on the keyboard of my laptop.

Have a great summer and I look forward to running into many of you over the summer!
