Thanks to the continued efforts of PTA and cooperation of the Lakewood Police Department, beginning October 27 a city crossing guard will be posted at Chase Ave. IN ADDITION, sometime in the near future, signs will be posted indicating that no traffic will be permitted to turn onto Chase from Clifton between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm. Further, all northbound traffic on Chase Ave. will be required to turn right onto Clifton. While these traffic changes may be inconvenient for drivers, especially the residents of Chase Ave., keeping your children safe is our number one priority. The crossing guard and traffic update will result in a safer, more positive experience for your children travelling to and from school each day. Model Building Club News The model club has had 2 meetings with the next scheduled for the first week in November. There are 10 members who are in fourth or fifth grade. All monetary support is through the Lakewood Education Foundation and we thank the group for this support. For now, the students are working in pairs to build snap together models. Mr. McGuan, Mr. Browngardt and the students are finding that model building is living up to some of the goals and values stated in the grant: patience, achievement and double-checking work. This is also a great way to spend some after-school time with friends! Picture Retake Day Your can have his/her school pictures retaken on November 11. Just send your original photos back in the envelope they arrived in and no other paperwork is needed. If your child was absent for the first picture day, you

using a facial tissue using the washroom removing gloves cleaning gardening What to do when you cough or sneeze: cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve put used tissues in the wastebasket clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer For more information call Peel Health at 905-799-7700 or visit www.peelregion.ca/flu.​ Winter bus safety The following winter school bus safety tips will help to keep your child safe throughout the winter months. Allow extra time to get to your bus stop. Wear bright clothing so the bus can see you in the early morning and late evening. Stand away from where the bus stops. Buses need extra room to stop when there is snow and ice. Use the handrail when boarding or exiting the bus to prevent slipping on wet or icy steps or road surfaces. Dress properly—winter clothing, hats, and boots will keep you warm. Don't throw snowballs at the bus or other children waiting for the bus. Don't slide on the snow or ice patches in driveways or on the street. Don't push or around the bus. Someone could fall down on the ice and get hurt. On very rare occasions, buses are late because of weather conditions or mechanical problems. Talk to your child about what to do if the bus is late. Here are some suggestions: When possible, wait with your child for the bus. Make sure your child knows a phone number where he can reach you or another trusted adult. Teach your child how and where to get help. Talk to your child about what a "safe" stranger is. Help your child set up a bus stop buddy system so your child has someone to wait with for the bus.

November Newsletter Pumas News The Character trait for November is Responsibility Responsibility is “taking ownership of your thoughts, words, and actions.” This trait is essential for becoming a healthy, happy, and productive person…and it is the basis for a free and civil society where each person does what he or she is expected to do. Responsibility begins with “little things” like taking care of your belongings, working with a good attitude, resolving conflicts peacefully, and owning up to mistakes. Taking responsibility in “little things” prepares students for greater opportunities in the future! -Character First Education No School Days!!!!

Along with these last questions, student groups could be asked to create explanatory models of how the different looking puppies came about. By the end of the unit, these are some that students should be able to include in the final examples of their models: 1. What can be observed about the dogs? Describe their relationships. (Students should be able to identify generations of organisms and phenotypes.) 2. What information is hidden within the dogs that affects their appearance? (Students should be able to predict possible genotypes of organisms and understand that this information lies in the genes of the organism’s chromosomes.) 3. What interactions occur with the parent information in order to produce the puppies that are observed? (Students should be able to describe the interactions between dominant and recessive alleles and predict the outcomes of these interactions.) B: This phenomenon could also be used later on in a unit on Heredity/Genetics to help provide options for differentiation of student work with Punnett Squares. If students need more practice with monohybrid crosses, they could work on making predictions about the offspring of only chocolate and black Labrador parents with varying genotypes. Students could also work up to the challenge of being able to figure out an unknown parent genotype by trying to puzzle out the method that we know as a test cross. If students have mastered the use of basic Punnett Squares, they could be given the additional challenge of making predictions of dihybrid crosses between black, chocolate, or yellow lab parents with varying genotypes. In this case, there are enough options of genotypes that students could even make up their own crosses and see what offspring would be predicted. Later in the unit, students could also be given a real-life challenge as if they were in the role of a dog breeder. Here is an example scenario: “You get to choose what color coat you believe best suits Labrador retrievers! Once you have chosen which coat color you prefer, please explain how over the course of at least 3 generations you could maximize the number of puppies born with your favorite coat color.”

1. "In the natural sciences progress can be made, but in the arts this is not possible.” To what extent do you agree? 2. “Technology both enables us to produce knowledge and limits the knowledge that is produced.” Discuss with reference to two areas of knowledge. 3. “Every attempt to know the world rests on a set of assumptions that cannot be tested.” Examine this proposition in relation to two areas of knowledge. 4. “Knowledge gives us a sense of who we are.” To what extent is this true in the human sciences and one other area of knowledge? 5. “… our knowledge is only a collection of scraps and fragments that we put together into a pleasing design, and often the discovery of one new fragment would cause us to alter utterly the whole design” (Morris Bishop). To what extent is this true in history and one other area of knowledge? 6. “The methods used to produce knowledge depend on the use to which it will be put.” Discuss this statement in relation to two areas of knowledge.
