Your group should be almost done the Treaty, and it must be finished tomorrow.
Math and Science reports have begun. Be mindful of your time.
We are back into the swing of things for the next two weeks of the project. CTF building days have started. Students are expected to have their materials here at school and use their building time wisely. We are also working on our Treaties and will soon be starting the Math component.
By the end of the day on March 22 you must be FINISHED the following items of the project so far:
1. Regions Research Booklet
2. Science Research Booklet
3. Bibliography
4. Good copy of Policy of Imperialism
5. Most of Blue Prints done
6. Materials list has been started
If you are not done these items your group needs to communicate how this will be finished over the break.

After our Grade 8 meeting today, we have decided all Grade Eights in the building need another full day to work on their Science research organizer. You will have two periods Monday, as well as study stop with Ms. Noullett and Mr. Schmidt after school, to complete your Science research organizer.
Here are the notes from Rm. 10 today:
We are almost done the first week of the project! You should be done all your research by the end of tomorrow. Also, you should have a completed bibliography sheet done. Tomorrow we get into the HUM work with the policy of Imperialism/Expansionism.

WHOLE SCHOOL FIELD TRIP!
On Monday, December 5, students received a field trip form for an upcoming hockey game field trip at the Saddledome. The game aligns with anti-bullying month and multiple speakers and other activities will happen throughout the Calgary Hitman game. Forms and $15 fee are due on Friday, December 9 in order to reserve your seat!
Helping Bags!
HDC is once again collecting items to donate to the Mustard Seed for the upcoming holiday season. 802 is being asked to collect chap stick/lip chap. Please bring in items to your homeroom teacher!
Students are invited to wear their Halloween costumes to school on Monday! Costumes must still fit into the school dress code. No weapons, nothing that fully covers the face, tops and bottoms that follow the fingertip rule.
On Halloween we are inviting students to also collect non-perishable food items for the Food Bank while they are Trick-or-Treating! Bring the items to the school and we will take them to the Food Bank.
A reminder that tomorrow is the Grade 8 field trip to the Glenbow Museum!
Reminder for fieldtrip tomorrow:
Back packs are not permitted, lunch kits only.
You will need a camera or personal device with a camera in it. We will be taking pictures that represent the 7 worldview elements.
