April 28 - May 2

This blog will have lesson plans and links to assignments. I will try to ensure that all assignments are made available on the Internet in this way. If something is underlined on the blog, it means you can click on it to see a copy of the item - this could be a pdf document, powerpoint, or a video. If you can't read the PowerPoint material on your computer, download PowerPoint Viewer from Microsoft for free. Use this blog to see what is coming up each week. If you are away, you can check up on what you are missing and download any assigned work.
If you have any questions or would like some help with the material or the homework, you can contact me anytime by e-mail at: emilycarlson@telus.net. My official tutorial times this week will be in Mrs. Hayter's room Monday and Wednesday 2:55-3:15 pm.

*This is my last week of teaching here at Sutherland and then I must return to UBC to finish my courses. Mrs. Hayter will be teaching Block 1 starting Tuesday and Block 2 starting Wednesday. I am very sad to be leaving but I look forward to moving forward in my teaching career. I have really enjoyed my time here and I want to thank you for being a great class.
