Updates:

MATH: test today on module 1 and then we go into decimal numbers. Students typically tend to struggle with these, so will try to take it slow. For now if they practice what a decimal looks like and the place values in French, that is a start.


FLA: we finished the practice opinion letter.It should be in the panier. We are continuing on GB+, reading comprehension so I can finish testing student levels and get them to grade 6 level.


ELA: we are working on suffixes today and prefixes tomorrow.


SCIENCE: we have begun our unit on astronomie and will look at the stars to begin with. Students have been given a month long assignment on looking at the moon. They need to track it every 3 days and draw it on a chart. Also, I highly recommend that they go to the NASA website to learn and be curious about the night sky.

Religion:

We need to skip chapter 3 because we are behind and we need to move onto Advent which starts this weekend. Students will be asked to learn about Mary, Joseph and Jesus and as a class we will put together a magazine.
