Good evening parents and students !

Tomorrow is Superhero/Princess day!


As a reminder: St.Jude's Academy is now affiliated with an official soccer club called St. Jude's FC. Students of St.Jude are given a 33% discount that will allow them to join the club and play competitively with other soccer clubs this spring and summer (starting most likely April to September). The students will be working with excellent coaches and going to competitions on the weekend. Practices will be held (most likely) right after school twice a week. In April, besides the soccer field, the students will have a chance to play in our official soccer dome!
This is a great opportunity!! 
The students have been given forms , they should try to submit the form as soon as possible. 


Math:
In math today, we began by taking up all the questions from the Show What you Know and reviewed tree diagrams and outcome tables. 

Next, the students worked a review that will be similar to the quiz tomorrow. 
1. There will be probability questions were they have to estimate the theoretical probability and find equivalent fractions (multiply the top - numerator- with the same number as bottom -denominator). Here is a video link if they get stuck. 
2.There will be a question were they have to create an outcome chart. 
3. Lastly, there will be a question where they have to complete a tree diagram. 

Note: The students will be marked on their calculations, probability (fractions), and final sentences. The students should also know percent as well (out of a hundred). 
Students were given the choice of taking extra worksheets home.


UOI:
In UOI, the students the practiced their projects for tomorrow with the Body World Exhibit. Some students are still not done their written components, they must finish this tonight. Others still need to complete their self-assessment section of the package they were given, this is also to be completed for homework. 
Please practice what you are going to say tomorrow during the exhibit!
