Hello all. We are getting close to exams which indicates approximately the half way point of the semester.  Time does fly. 

History 421  Our mid-term will take place on wednesday April 8 th in room 113.  Remeber that we will begin the slide show presentations in class the Monday before (so we can accomplish them all before en of exams) .  I look forward to seeing the presentations.

 

Music 621  The Atlantic Band Festival is closing upon us rapidly.  We have about a month to insure that we have looked at (and improved where needed) the three pieces for the festival.  We will play “Prelude and Fugue”, “As Summer was Just Beginning” and “Fort Bragg”.  Next test will be E Flat Minor scale and Arpeggio in one weeks time (Wed 08 April).  2 Octaves minimum.

Grade 9 Science.  We are going to continue working on Chapter 5 (Cell Division) and will test ASAP upon completion of the chapter. 

Hope you all have a great week.

Mr D

Before March Break

Hi to all.  Hope you all have a great March Break.  Enjoy and stay healthy.

Band 621 We will test the B Flat Minor scale by the first Wednesday back.  Practice over the break so we aren’t faced with playing issues when we get back after the weeks holidays.

History 421 We will move onto Greece with the completion of TROY which we began in class today.  Test will be the Wednesday we get back and material will be Fertile Crescent  through to end of Persia (pps 44 to 71 in text). 

Grade 9 Science  Test wednesday on units 11 and 12.  We will continue with reproduction in class and do test review on Monday when we return.

 

A reminder to all Band students that you need to get the money for the Halifax trip to me soonest please.  I am also thinking of doing a bake sale shortly after our return to school ( auction in the cafeteria) and will be looking for volunteers to bake and sell their wares.
