Our next extra-curricular activity is skiing/snowboarding at Glen Eden Ski Resort. Our next trip is Wednesday, March 4. Please do not order lunch for these days; it will not be saved nor will a reimbursement be given. We will be leaving at 7:00 AM and returning by 4:00 PM at the latest. All rentals are included, however students are more than welcome to bring their own. Please do not order hot lunch for these days as we will be eating lunch at the ski hill – students are welcome to bring money to purchase food and drink items. Students must ensure they are dressed in appropriate ski gear; warm socks, long johns with comfy clothes, snow pants, warm mitts, a face protector (if possible) and a ski jacket. Please note that if students chose skiing, they will ski all three times. If students pick snowboarding, they will snowboard all three times. All students will have to pass each level before they are granted permission to ski on the big hill, no matter what their experience. 


March Break Camps

Forms have been sent home regarding SJA’s awesome Adventure Camp. The wonderful camp will run from Monday to Friday both weeks of the March Break (March 9-13 & March 16-20) and is offered to student from JK to Grade 6. Field trips will take place on Thursday afternoons. Meal plans are also included if you chose to do so. Cash or QuickBooks payments only please. Don’t delay; register today! Contact Ms. Hughes at bsmith@stjudesacademy.com for any questions.


We began the day with math. 

Learning Goals: to apply my understanding of experimental and theoretical probability.

We  went through some examples as a class to ensure we understand how to make a tree diagram and answer probability related questions.  








Students then completed questions in their textbook.

Success Criteria:
I understand 
-when probability is expressed as a percent, the word “chance” is used
-the probability of an impossible outcome is 0. The probability of an outcomes that is certain is 1. 

The rest of the day was spent working on our country brochure as well as in French class and physical education class.

For our brochure we focused on the offerings and needs and WHY the HDI is so low in our country based on the three areas (life expectancy, knowledge and standard of living) and then using this to better understand the specific goods or services that our country needs to ask for in order to improve the HDI ranking in our chosen country. 

Homework and Reminders:

1. Read Daily
2. Brochure due tomorrow (most was finished in class) 
3. UOI test tomorrow
4. Math pg. 422-423 Questions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 (most students finished in class)
