Mr. Shaddick

Exams are Over!

Congratulations on making it through exams!  School starts up again on Friday - same time, same place.  Feel free to drop by and let me know how much you miss having math in the new semester.

I look forward to meeting my new classes - at the moment, that means MDM 4U, MPM 1D and MCV 4U.  Of course, things could change - they have almost daily this week.

Back to marking ....

Exams!

The exam schedule for my classes is as follows:

MCF 3M - Friday, January 23, 2009
MPM 1D - Monday, January 26, 2009

Each exam begins at 9am in our classroom.

MHF 4U - January 20, 2009

After watching today's inauguration in class, I mentioned a book that I recommend reading.  It was written in 1901, so I thought I'd check if it appears on Project Gutenberg (a collection of out-of-copyright books).  So, if you are interested in checking out "Up From Slavery" by Booker T. Washington, click, enjoy, and learn.
