Hello Everyone!

It's crazy to think that 2 months of school has flown by and December is right around the corner!

St. Jude’s Academy is excited to welcome back to our school the talented artists from ArtReach Mississauga to lead exciting art workshops for our students.  Students will have a chance to join the ArtReach professionals for a two hour workshop at SJA that focuses on engaging and comprehensive visual art activities. ArtReach will be joining SJA on November 30^th, December 1^st and December 2^nd. The cost of the workshop is $15.00.  This cost includes the workshop fee, and all materials.  Forms and fees are due back to the school by November 3^rd, 2016.

We will be celebrating Guy Fawkes Day on Friday November 4th. Please see a copy of the poem below, as students are asked to memorize it for Friday. 

The Fifth of November

    Remember, remember! 

    The fifth of November, 

    The Gunpowder treason and plot; 

    I know of no reason 

    Why the Gunpowder treason 

    Should ever be forgot! 

    Guy Fawkes and his companions 

    Did the scheme contrive, 

    To blow the King and Parliament 

    All up alive. 

    Threescore barrels, laid below, 

    To prove old England's overthrow. 

    But, by God's providence, him they catch, 

    With a dark lantern, lighting a match! 

    A stick and a stake 

    Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! make the bells ring! 

    Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the King! 

    Hip, hip, hooor-r-r-ray!

Scientist in the school permission form and money due Friday November 4th!

Spa basket donations are due Nov. 15th.

UOI:  In Light and Sound we turned up the volume. Students created funnels to see if it would magnify sound and if it would help you hear better if it was used as a ear funnel. 

Math: We worked on Capacity today. Students really seemed to grasp the concepts of 1L=1000mL. Students can look around at home and see how many litres and millilitres are in containers. Students can then convert the amount to the opposite unit.
