5 Week Progress Reports and 24 Hour Foods Journals

I would like to inform you that 5 week progress reports will be handed out to all grade 9 classes and all students with a mark under 60% on Thursday, October 10th.  Some teachers will email a copy to you on Wednesday.  Other teachers will provide a hard copy in class on Thursday to those students affected.  I plan to do both.  
On another note, students were given the first part of a major assignment today.  They must keep a 24 hour food journal that is due on Tuesday October 15th.  However, if it is done earlier they are to hand it in so that we can begin to make corrections.  They need to record the foods that they are eating and the exact amounts.  Please encourage them to use measuring tools such as measuring cups, spoons and scales when possible.  (It is not necessary to have a scale for this assignment).
Thank you for your support in helping complete the 24 hour journal.  It will lead to a diet analysis.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
