Today during Math our Grade 7's had their first crack at writing FSA's, the BC Ministry of Education standardized test on reading, writing and numeracy. The students showed great perseverance and grit, working through the two problems. Curling Info (as taken from Ms. Hurtubise's website) Curling originated in the 16th century in Scotland, where games were played during winter on frozen ponds and lochs. The earliest-known curling stones came from the Scottish regions of Stirling and Perth and date from 1511. Now, Curling is a favourite sport of Canadians. On Monday, January 23 and 30, we are going curling at the Cloverdale Curling Rink. I think it's going to be fun. The Cloverdale Rink has been having an issue with salt coming into the lobby of their club. If it is not dealt with properly, it can and does find its way to the ice which leads to it some very serious affects on the quality and effectiveness of the curling ice. Here is what we have been asked to do to help alleviate the issue:
It is also recommended that you wear warm loose stretchy clothing (jeans are not suitable, sweat pants are best) and dress in layers (light jacket, sweater etc.). You may also want to bring a pair of gloves.
