We have now begun our Economics Unit with our Fedchun Bucks, Next week, we will be discussing Supply and Demand, students will be able to buy their desks from me, so they do not have to pay rent. Students receive $500 pay each week and are encouraged to start their own business. This makes for great dinner time conversation.

Please see PowerSchool for regular updates such as day-to-day work effort, grades, assignment completion and marks. Students have been working on word equation problems and will be having a test on Tuesday, March 17th if all goes according to plan.

9 Science


Please see PowerSchool for regular updates such as day-to-day work effort, grades, assignment completion and marks. Students have been learning to calculate voltage, efficiency, power, current. Kilowatt hours and electrical costs. It would be great if you could show your child your electricity bill and explain the breakdown of kilowatt hours and cost as well as delivery cost and so on. This would help make a real world connection between their in class learning and their own lives. Students also learned a bit about home electrical systems and wiring. Ask them if they know where the home main electrical panel is. Ask them if them about the dangers of this panel and other electrical things in the home and how to reduce the risks.
