What a great day!

Students spent the morning reading about and creating a one-pager about a current Canadian Forces operation, which we then created a display in the hallway.

After recess we had our Remembrance Day Assembly. It was a very powerful and meaningful assembly and I’m very proud of the way Div 3 comported themselves. Here is the collaborative art piece we made to hang in the gym.

After a tasty hot lunch we split off for ADST- the 7s trucked along with Young Entrepreneurs and the 6s did some photography work.

Grade 7 families- you should have received an email from me with some reminders.

I am still looking for a few drivers for next week’s field trip. I currently have enough for half the class. On Monday I will make the decision to cancel, I will need to give the facility enough notice. Thank you to those that have gotten back to me.

Semaine Prochaine:

  • lundi- Jour de Congé
  • mardi- Jour du Souvenir
  • mercredi- 7mes- Orchestre, Math?
  • vendredi- Rockclimbing?

Bonne fin de semaine!

What a stunning day!

At lot of our focus today was on Remembrance Day- I shared that my cousin Chad was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2008, so Remembrance Day is very important to me and my family. We did some French reading about why we wear a poppy and what ceremonies look like, then switched for Math- 6s are working on PGFC and 7s on operations with integers. After recess, we created a collaborative art piece to hang at our assembly on Friday.

Please take a moment to read my email about Rockclimbing next Friday. I am in very much need of some parent drivers!

Les Devoirs:

  • demain- 7mes- Orchestre
  • vendredi- Assemblé du Jour du Souvenir
    • 7mes- YE: bring survey results and prototypes

Happy Monday!

This morning the 7s worked diligently on their FSAs while the 6s did some French work with Mme Gaudet. After lunch, the 7s went to Band and the 6s continued their work with factors, then some Monday catch up to end the day, we will out new job applications, salaries were paid and rent was collected. Those that had not completed their bonne copies utilized their time well while others played cooperatively.

I will send the Rock Climbing waivers and other relevant information home tomorrow. I am looking for drivers to get us there and back, Friday November 14, 10:30-1:00ish. If you are available, please let me know 🙂

Welcome to November!

Apologies for not posting on Friday, it took me a while to clean up after our day and I wanted to get home to my family. We had a busy and fun day! Volleyball in our costumes, worked on our paragraphs, finished our light-up houses and then ate lots of yumyums and enjoyed each others’ company. Thank you to everyone who brought in goodies to share 🙂

Hope you had a safe and fun Halloween evening. The weather may not have fully cooperated, but fun was had in our neighbourhood for sure.

Friday- we party! The class came together and purchased a class party, yahoo! I’m not sure we have any more details than that, they have tomorrow to try and figure it out 🙂 Hopefully we have some yumyums and something fun to do?

We continued work on our paragraphs in French, good copies will begin on Friday after some thorough revision and correction. Math happened, 6s are working on finding factors.

Work continued on our haunted houses, so many successful circuits were built today! The goal is to finish on Friday so we can light them all up, turn off the lights and do a spooky gallery walk 🙂

Brrrr! What a dreary day! I think we can expect the same the rest of the week unfortunately… please remind your child to prepare and dress accordingly for these conditions!

Today was busy! We continued planning our paragraphe de la semaine, split off for ADST. The grade 7s conducted their survey for YE today, and persevered in unpleasant conditions. Next time we meet we will go over results and continue with the process. Students have probably already gleaned some information from the process today, and should continue with production of their product at home.

After recess and lunch, we continued work on our maisons hauntées. They are looking good, some have even wired up their circuits! Work continues tomorrow.

Good luck to our grade 6 volleyball players at their game this afternoon!

Les Devoirs:

  • demain: 6 students in at lunch to complete Types de Circuits paquet
    • 7mes- Orchestre
  • vendredi- Fête de Classe? il faut payer et discuter les détails…

À demain!

Happy Monday! No inside recess for us today so Mme was happy today 🙂

We were busy today! Started a paragraph of the week in French, switched for Math, and then began a super fun Science project- a lit up haunted house! (or some other themed lit up house). Students have begun the process of constructing and decorating their houses, and will finish by wiring up one or two elements to light up using coin batteries, copper tape and LEDs. The entire class was super engaged before and after lunch. We’ve got some great looking houses in the works!

Students are to have their Fall Learning Update in their backpacks today, please take a moment to look it over. You would have heard from me already if there were any major concerns.

Les Devoirs:

  • demain: maison hantée continuée
    • 7mes- YE: prototype and survey
