Exam Reminders and Cancellations due to Inclement Weather
I began the class today by taking up any questions the students had from the homework I assigned on Fri Jan 16 after the students wrote their culminating task. After taking up the culminating task, I then told the students I would be giving them their mark culminating tasks back. I told the students that I would take up the solutions to the task on the digital projector and they could go over their tasks at their desks but then I would have to take them back (students will have another chance to view their culminating task on exam review day which is Thur Jan 29 (times students can come in – to be announced). After going over the culminating, I then told the students we would be starting review for the final exam. I first went over a specific breakdown of the exam. I then put questions on the board and had them try them at their desks. Once the students had a chance to write something down, I then called students up to the board to put up their answers. We then took up the questions as a class. We did this for the remainder of the period. I told the students we would continue this activity for the next 3 days (exam review ends on Thur Jan 22). I also assigned questions for the students to work on tonight for homework (Pages 186 to 188 #1 to 18 – I assigned this on Fri Jan 16; Pages 382 to 384 #1 to 29 – I assigned this today). I will take up any questions the students have from the review at the start of tomorrow’s class or students can email me directly if they have any questions (abawa@office.ldcsb.on.ca).
Below you will find a copies of the handouts/worksheets that were distributed/assigned in today’s class.
Culminating Task Questions with Solutions (This was the solutions to the culminating task which the students wrote on Fri Jan 16. I told the students that they could not take the culminating task with them but I gave it to them today in class to go over their answers at the start of today’s class)
