Happy First Day of Autumn! Hope you all had a lovely weekend, a few students shared out the best part of their weekend, sounds like lots of fun and interesting events 🙂

Today was Day 1 of our Dictée program! The first 3 days of the week, students will listen to and write down French sentences, work with the vocabulary as well as a specific grammar or verb conjugation rule. The last day (or following Monday), students will write the Examen de Dictée, and the day after that, a quiz on that week’s rule. The target is 5 errors or less on the examen, and we will also examine our results over time to look for patterns/improvements etc.

This week, we will also be dedicating some time to discuss Truth and Reconciliation, Residential Schools and Orange Shirt Day. Our assembly will be on Friday.

This morning we had a lovely gym block- after our warmup we practiced some pickle ball basics, ran a few drills, then played a bit of back and forth. I was happy to see everyone wore relatively reasonable gym attire and shoes.

In French we did an English to French translation activity which will hopefully encouraged us to not use Google Translate for entire sentences or chunks of text.
