Busy busy day!

Some work with DR MRS VANDERTRAMP this morning, then some Math. After recess we met with Ms Harnoor for our 5th Peace Circles. After lunch we did some long jump and 200m practice before switching off for Band/Library.

Speaking of Peace Circles, I am noticing that not everyone seems to be demonstrating that they understand the point of peace circles. I feel like we are still choosing to engage in behaviours not in line with our agreed upon guidelines and expectations, and as a result, some students are being treated in unkind and unfair ways. Mme Huard and I will continue to remind and encourage everyone to be kind, safe and respectful, but will separate groups if good choices cannot be made, and may use recess times to engage in constructive conversations as needed. Thank you for your support at home.

Students are encouraged to have appropriate clothing, footwear and hydration assistance at all times for the foreseeable future. We will be going outside as often as possible to practice Track and Field.

Les Devoirs:

  • vendredi- Education Physique, Dîner Chaud, Passé Composé ReQuiz
  • lundi- SCIENCE WORLD

À vendredi!

Happy Monday! Wasn’t that just the loveliest weekend? Spent most of it outside with my family.

Today was a typical busy and productive Monday- students wrote the passé composé quiz, we switched for Math (congrats to all grade 7s who competed in the Pi contest! Congrats to Annika!) We did a gallery walk for our one-pagers, they look amazing! After lunch we switched off for Band/Sciences Humaines, then finished the day getting familiar with the nervous system in preparation for our field trip next Monday.

Speaking of, if you haven’t yet made the payment/permission form on SchoolCashOnline, please do so as soon as possible. If your child is not attending, would you mind sending me an email? We would love a couple more volunteers as well if you are willing/able.

I am viewing this week as the “calm before the storm”, once May really begins, it gets pretty crazy!

À demain!

TGIF! What a beautiful and busy day we had! We ran 2 timed laps in PE, so many students are making solid improvements on their times which is amazing. We also did our first long jump practice. We switched for Math, grade 6s have a graded assignment due Monday. After recess we did Jump Rope for Heart with our little buddies. After lunch was our final work block for our Cactus one-pagers- they look amazing! Lots of incredible work! The Soo-permarché was also open and students walked out the door with their freezies from Jump Rope.

We did not have the passé composé quiz today, Monday instead.
