The grade six students will depart for Moncton at 9:00 tomorrow morning. Please pack a swimsuit, extra clothes and lots of sunscreen. Boomer says it is going to be a beautiful day! Lucky you!
The grade five students will clean up our classroom and perhaps watch a movie!
Students will be working to review angles, problem solving, multiplication and division. Our quiz will be on Thursday.
The students have been working with protractors to measure angles and have been learning about the different kinds of angles. There will be a quiz on the material early next week. This quiz will also include a review of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Just a post to let you know that I will be absent from school this Thursday and Friday. I will be purchasing books for our Library Collection (both French and English). The students have provided me with some excellent suggestions and I look forward to participating in the collection development plan.
Just a quick update about routines for the last eleven days of school! We are continuing our learning by working on the following activities:
math - using protractors to measure angles, exploring geometry with manipulatives
English Language Arts/French Language Arts - creating paper bag puppets to use in a bilingual play for the grade four Core French students (presentations next week)
Social Studies/ French - teaching students from 5E how to create slideshows using Corel Presentation software in their biography study (Some students are also conducting their own research. )
Writing a ficitious penpal letter in French to contribute to the data collection for our school development plan. The French Immersion teachers will use these writing samples to learn assessment techniques and to develop a plan to improve the level of writing (ideas, organization and conventions) within our French Immersion programs.
Learning through presentations - grade five - one more lesson in Personal safety grade six -Family Life sessions have concluded, Smoking and RCMP presentation about cyberbullying take place this week
Reading for pleasure - The students in 5/6 F continue to read, share and talk about the novels they are enjoying. They are wonderful at promoting these books and authors amongst themselves.
