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.

Students are reminded to have appropriate clothing/footwear at school at all times, we may practice Track and Field without notice!

Today was…

We started with a Gr 7 meeting to pitch possible themes before we begin the voting process. Then we had PE outside due to class photos. We switched for math. After lunch we our class photo, worked a bit on our one-pagers before all the group photos got done including the gr 7 group photo, so cute.

Les Devoirs:

• Science World permissions, still looking for a couple parent volunteers
• vendredi- Cactus One-Pagers due, Jump Rope for Heart

Bonne fin de semaine!

Hope you had a nice weekend! I heard about some sports and dance events, Coachella watching and food truck festival eating this morning 🙂

In French, we began our study of le passé composé (the past tense). I have noticed that verb conjugation is an area of growth, and is something that is important in grade 8 so we will work on this term.

This afternoon, we officially began our Novel Analysis One-Pagers, I posted the outline on Friday. Students will have 2 full weeks of in class time to work on their one-pagers, and I am expecting very good demonstrations of understanding, thinking and connection related to the novel as a result.

Our class is up to $150 in Jump Rope for Heart donations, well done!

Things to note this week:

• jeudi- Treat Day- “Smencils”
• vendredi- Class/Group/Gr 7 photo

À demain!

Another busy day in the Chalet!

Did some timed laps in PE, a bit of French grammar work, the 6s wrote their quiz, the 7s got theirs back, some have the option to redo on Monday. After lunch, Mr Bonnar visited with us discussing some concerning discriminatory language that has been reported to them, being used by some students in our class, and other grade 6/7 classes. He reminded us of the script Code of Conduct and kind, safe and respectful behaviour expectations. And then we finished Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus! Exhale. Students were also shown how to log into the Sora app, so they can access to the text, and I quickly outlined the novel analysis one-pager that we will officially begin on Monday.

Bonne fin de semaine, à lundi!

Happy Sunny Wednesday! Sorry for not posting yesterday, a bit too much going on after school.

Today was very productive! We are SO close to finishing our novel, Friday is the day! Then we switched for Math, 7s wrote a quiz, 6s will write theirs on Friday. After recess we had our second Peace Circle with Ms Harnoor where we talked about the seen and unseen related to conflict, she and I were both very impressed with everything the class came up with, and again, great participation this week. After lunch, our little buddies came to play their math game with us and we finished the day having a Jazz Band from Ontario play for us.

Grade 7s- an email should have come through asking for baby photos for end of year things
