Week 6

 Dear Parents, 

I hope this message finds you well. Over the next two weeks, we will be completing the final unit before our first exam of the semester. We will have a quiz this Friday and a unit test the following Friday. However, students can begin reviewing for the exam now, as there is a lot of material to cover. The exam will include content from the last three units. 

I have returned the last unit test, and the average score was 77%. 

Please find the homework for the week below. 

Warm regards, 

Mr. van der Westhuizen
