Science Fair Information:

Hello to our Grade 7 parents/guardians,

I am sending a quick message to let everyone know that our Grade 7 students will be participating in a Science Fair this Term! We will be presenting our projects on Thursday, February 27th. Our students have been hard at work researching, inventing, and/or experimenting around the topic of “science is for everyone”!

Due to space and time constraints, we are not able to welcome families to attend, but I will be filming a ‘virtual tour’ that you will be able to access on Teams afterwards.

If you have not already done so, please check in with your child about their progress so far on their Science Fair project. They should have already brought home a purple proposal sheet to be reviewed/signed by a parent/guardian/important adult. Students have also signed this sheet and have been granted approval/partial approval for their proposed project by me as well.

Each project must include a visual component (poster, model, diagram, video, etc.), a written component (text on a poster, a brochure, etc.), and a verbal component (answering questions from our judges, a script, quick summary of their project, etc.).

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions… I will send a reminder and additional information closer to our due date.

Best wishes,

Ms. Ward

Welcome, Grade 7s!

Greetings to our Grade 7 class of 2024/2025!

It has already been a very busy first few days of school in our new classroom community. We have been hard at work getting to know each other, adapting to new routines, and considering the roles/responsibilities of Grade 7s.

I am excited to get to know everyone, as both individuals and as a class!

I am looking forward to introducing (or re-introducing) myself to the wonderful parents/guardians/families that are supporting our Grade 7 students during our Welcoming Conversations in October (more information to follow).

In the meantime, I have created a quick survey that I ask be filled in by the parents/guardians of our Grade 7s. This survey was also sent home on a pink form with our school supply list for the year. The survey can be found here: Grade 7 parent guardian survey

Please check out our class blog frequently for reminders, upcoming due dates, and videos/resources we learned about in class!

Best wishes,

Ms. Ward
