Masala Boyz is so tasty!

Another productive day in the Chalet! We began by wrapping up our volleyball unit with an observation and assessment, I wandered around watching bumping and setting, giving a bit of feedback and jumping in as needed. Thanks to those that let me hit volleyballs at them, always fun 🙂 We then switched for Math. After recess it was all French- we wrote our Examen de Dictée 4 then worked on our paragraphs. After lunch we switched for ADST, 7s began their business plans and 6s did some fun flat lays.

Monday and Tuesday are going to be BUSY as we prepare for SICs on Wednesday and Thursday. If you have work that is due or has been due, GET IT DONE. It will come up during your conference!

Happy Monday! Anyone watch the Grey Cup yesterday? We did and ate some very yummy appies 🙂

We worked hard today. As this is our last full week before SICs, we have lots to get done. I am excited for them to show you all the learning and growth that has taken place so far.

This morning we started a new DictĂ©e. It has been a few weeks but I want to review our results and do some self-reflection for SICs. The 6s wrote a PGFC Quiz in Math and 7s are working on multiplying integers. In English we wrote a NF Text Feature Quiz, and then practiced our mastery of it some more. After lunch the 7s went to Band and the 6 started their next Problème de la Semaine. Afterwards we met up with our little buddies for a quick free play in the gym. To finish the day, students received their paragraphs, Mon Passe-Temps PrĂ©fĂ©rĂ©, as well as started a new topic for this week’s- Ma CĂ©lĂ©bration PrĂ©fĂ©rĂ©e. The goal is for them to take the feedback from the previous and apply it to this week’s, and we will compare at SICs to show growth, and also to set a goal around writing.

Giving Trees are starting up! Soon the tags will be available on the trees, and our wonderful grade 7 leadership students will be helping out.

Les Devoirs:

  • demain- 6mes- La Musique

Alternative Title- BATS!

Another fun Friday where we avoided the rain! We did some volleyball in PE, played a fun serving game called “clear the court”. After recess we switched for ADST- 7s are working on their mini black and white ad that will be placed around the school. After lunch we did some work with non-fiction text features, students used some pre-made bits plus some of their own research and creativity to create a mini-poster about bats, but also labelling the different features. Some very interesting facts were shared!

Les Devoirs:

  • lundi- Quiz- Non-Fiction Text Features Quiz (BLOOKET PRACTICE HERE)
    • 6mes- PGFC evaluation

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:

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.
