English and Math Assignment



Welcome to Wednesday!!!

Hey buddy.  

Here is one of your assignments for QA this week.  Read about Advent

1) What does Advent mean and what does it begin?
2) How many weeks does Advent last? 
3) How many candles are in the Advent Wreath, what colours are they and what do they each represent? 
4) Have you ever made or had an advent wreath to celebrate Advent with your family?

Make sure to copy and paste the link and these questions into a word document.  Answer the questions in full sentences and when you have done that you can send me the assignment via e-mail.

What kind of advent calendar do you want to make?




I see you forgot your math at home.  You will need to do the math at school today and come home and do a few pages here.

Have a super day!
Love,
mum

Dear Andrew;

I am thrilled that you are on the mend. You have an amazing week ahead and I am very excited for you.  Remember each day can be different.  It can be as good as you make it.  When things are not going the way you want them to you have the control to do something about them.
As I reflect on the young man you have become, I smile with pride.  You AMAZE me with your knowledge and ability.  I came across this TED Talks video that I think will inspire you even more.

Watch this video about a boy who made his OWN apps.
