What a dreary afternoon it has been…
We worked hard in the chalet today! This morning we began with our Examen de Dictée 3 (Au Champ d’Honneur) and then they completed 4 questions to demonstrate their understanding of the poem itself. We then did some math- comparing and ordering integers. After recess we read another chapter in The Barren Grounds, did a turn and talk, post it note question and some vocabulary work. After Hot Lunch, the students did some self-reflection on their Divisibility test and organized some returned/marked work.
Next week will be very busy, especially because of the holiday on Wednesday!

Welcome to November! Hope you all had a lovely Halloween weekend 🙂
Busy day in the chalet- we are doing Au Champ d’Honneur for Dictée this week and we started our integers unit in math!
We read another chapter in The Barren Grounds after recess and then November rent was collected. We finished the day working on FSAs. Some students have finished, most are at least halfway through, we will get them done this week for sure.
Many students also went out and surveyed the primary students with their prototypes today, surveying will continue all week.
You should have received an email from Mrs Sollows about the Neufeld Farms Fundraiser- the moneys raised go directly to grade 7 events such as Camp and Farewell!

What a festive day! Nice to see so many costumes in the chalet 🙂
We started by observing the primary costume parade, saying hello to our little buddies. Then we had 3 grade 12 WGSS students from the Finance Club do a presentation, one being a former student on mine. We then voted on our Eurovision Canada candidate- TALK. After recess we continued on the FSAs. After lunch was dedicated to our Projet de Galaxie, which most are done, and ended the day at Band.
Young Entrepreneurs: we are conducting our market research surveys next week! French Fries will survey the primary side at recess on Monday and Wednesday, and the intermediate side on Tuesday and Thursday. Please bring your survey and prototype ready to go!
Hope you all have a safe and festive Halloween Weekend! Don’t forget that the clocks DO NOT fall back…
Joyeuse Halloween!

Well the weather was sure temperamental today!
We began with some volleyball in the gym, then worked more on the FSAs. After recess we wrote the Math test and spent time creating our product surveys for Young Entrepreneurs. After lunch the Soo-permarché was open for the first time and students continued working in their Projet des Galaxies which are due Friday.
The volleyball after school is just a JKE-based friendly, permission form not required. Official games begin next week, TBA.
Just a reminder that costumes should be non-scary, no masks and no weapons. You are welcome to bring yumyums to distribute but we will not be having a class party.

Well today was so much fun!!!
Huge kudos to the entire class for being the best sports today. We did our retakes, we hustled up there, and Mr Janzen was very impressed that we all knew how to log on. Students completed a mini research assignment on an ancient civilization, trying to argue why it should be brought back from the dead. They then recorded a podcast episode with another civilization. They also made an advertisement for their civilization in canva. Both the podcast and the ad will be shared with me!
We will begin our adventures with the FSAs tomorrow morning.
Les Devoirs:
- demain: Galaxy Booklet due (big question on back!)
- mercredi: Education Physique, Orchestre. Divisibility Test, Soo-permarché

Another busy Wednesday! But the weather has been so nice this week, so I won’t complain.
In PE this morning we started our Volleyball unit. I had so much fun walking around and peppering with different students.
Afterwards, we continued working on our Galaxy booklets, which are now due on Tuesday. Remember that the final question should be answered in a formal paragraph. Show me what you know and understand, use details and be specific!
After recess, students recorded themselves saying the Dictée des Galaxies. They also logged on to Teams for the first time to share the link, and then added their Quiz: ER au Présent to Spaces.
After lunch (that was a fun game…?) students completed their final Minutes Vites multiplication tables, and then took some time to review their progress and do some self-reflection. These are now ready for Term 1 SICs 🙂
Vision Board Info For Tomorrow: (from Mme Dykens)
- be prepared to make a collage on a standard size sheet of paper
- you should be collecting images/words/phrases from newspapers, magazines, flyers etc, or print out
- for example: things you like, inspire you, goals, things you hope to attain/achieve, maybe things related to your personality tests completed in class
- this is unique to you, should represent you and not just societal trends
- cut and paste will happen at school
Reminder- on Monday we are spending the ENTIRE day in the WGSS library. Students MUST bring a lunch and water bottle with them. We will quickly do retakes and then depart. We will be back for the end of day. I am still waiting on 4 permissions, please give to Mme Dykens tomorrow or be ready to hand me Monday morning!
Les Devoirs:
- demain: Vision Board materials, Spooktacular
- vendredi- Jour de Congé
- lundi- WGSS all day, photo retakes
