We're back in another week, and it is very exciting. Our class has ALMOST had everyone hand in their chocolate money, and that means that we are nearly there to win a giant 5 pound chocolate bar. We are also currently third in total chocolate sales, meaning that if we keep selling the way we are (a few students are well into their second and third cases sold), that we could win the Subway lunch party. Great work everyone! If you need more cases of chocolates to sell, just let me know!
Nextly, interviews are coming up. Our class interviews will be on Thursday October 11, and Tuesday October 16. For 7-5, I am test driving a new way of interview sign up. If you click on the button below, it will take you to a page where you can choose the date and time of your interview. It will ask you for your name and phone number, as well as your email address. This will all be kept confidential and not broadcast on the site. We are piloting the program, so there may be a few glitches, but I have heard good things about it, so hopefully it works. ***Note: Please make sure that your student is available when you sign up for a time slot. It is essential that the students are at the meetings, so all of us can discuss the year so far. It only takes a few moments to sign up for an interview time. Here's how:
- Click on the link below to go to our invitation page on VolunteerSpot (7-5 only)!
- Enter your email address (You will NOT need to register an account on VolunteerSpot).
- Choose your interview time and sign up. You should get an automated confirmation and reminder messages. Easy!

If for some reason it doesn't work out for you, just contact me and I can set it up for you manually.
On Wednesday, we will be participating in a cardboard challenge. I have challenged students to create something useful, beautiful, or entertaining using cardboard, tape, and a few other supplies. IF you have connections to cardboard and can send it to school, it would be very much appreciated. If you would like me to come and pick it up from your home or business, send me an email: derek.hyland@lpsd.ca, and I'll arrange for it! If you're interested in seeing our inspiration for this challenge, check out the two videos at http://cainesarcade.com/.
Also in this update, On Wednesday, October 10th, 7-5 will be travelling to Lakeland College for a Tipi raising. More info on this will be sent out later in the week!
That's all for now! Enjoy your week!
