The following is the
Learn Alberta website, which has a lot of information regarding education in
Alberta. http://www.learnalberta.ca/
To access information
on the learn Alberta site use the following username and password:
User: LA05 (zero)
Password: 3403 (zero)
I don’t find it very
user-friendly but there are some good points to it, such as the Online Reference
in the middle tab is a good place to go to for good websites, when doing
research.
This website gives an
overview of the Grade 6 program…(easier to click here than to search learn alberta)

Please don't forget to send in items for our food driveFriday, September 22, 2017
This week in Learning:
Thank you to all the parents and students who came to the interviews. It was nice to put a name to a face. We are beginning our Food Drive campaign from now until October 4th. Please donate generously to St Luke Feed the Hungry. Thank you in advance.
Thursday is the Terry Fox run. Please consider sending a donation of a toonie to go towards cancer research. It is also Tacky Tie day...go into dad's closet and find his ugliest tie and wear it with pride. Since the grade 6ers are the leaders, I would hope that their participation is evident as these are the themes that won majority votes.
Friday is school picture day.
SOCIAL STUDIES:
Students are asked to find their Ward and which candidates are running in their ward, as well as the candidates running for mayor. Please sent the information to my learn account by Wednesday Sept. 27. I have registered the class to vote in this election through Student Vote and need the number of ballots per ward so they can vote on Oct. 13th. I think it will be exciting for the students to vote for the candidates, even if their vote doesn't count yet. We are learning the process. Here is a link to calgary elections:
http://www.calgary.ca/election/Pages/information-for-voters/find-my-ward.aspx
MATH: quiz on Module 2, Lessons 1,3,4 on Tuesday Sept 26.
We are working on order of operations (PDMAS), integers, and ordering integers (anyone need a math lesson?)
ELA: chapters 1-4 have been assigned and will be working on those chapters and comprehension questions in class. Figures of speech can be reviewed each night.
FLA: students have been assigned a comic book that they need to write a resume on, have a glossary of more difficult words and a title page. We will be working on this for the next 2 full classes before it becomes homework. Also working on the verbs VENIR and FAIRE. A quiz on expressions with AVOIR will be on Friday Sept 29.
RELIGION: working on a plasticine scene about a time that they befriended someone. they had a difficult time with this, because it is easier to think of how we becaome best friends with someone. But I told them that it is more difficult to love our "ennemis" than it is our friends...so it is an exercise in going the extra mile.
MUSIQUE: still working on the music genre research.
ART: onomatopeia words in bold colors

this week in learning:
Any night that there is NO homework, students should be reviewing what we have already learned. There should never be a night without homework. Reading is also included in this speech!
I am still missing some forms: demographics
internet acceptable use policy
parent survey
Social Studies: students will be given access to Calgary Herald online to help with Current events. Every Social Studies class, 2 people will present a current event that has to do with government, whether municipal, provincial or federal. Students will know ahead of time what their date is to present. Information should not be too far in advance to avoid duplicate information. Here is the log-in information:
Calgary Herald log-in

Religion: We will be practicing for the school opening mass on Sept 26th @ 10a.m. I will choose readers and everyone sings. We are also looking at the importance of friendships.
Math: We have just finished multiples and will go onto prime numbers, composite numbers and factors. If your child has problems with multiplications...practice, practice, practice.
Fr: we continue with graphic novels, terms, definitions and reading comprehension. This week we will begin a large project that turns a story into a graphic novel.
ELA: we will begin to read "Chasing Vermeer" and working on figures of speech. The book is chock full of them. Grown-up Rule narrative writing is due tomorrow Sept 19th.
Music: everyone should have their genre of music chosen for their research project. We have Chromebooks booked the 19th to work on this.
Terry Fox Run information:
Please send a donation of a "Toonie for Terry" this week to help find a cure for cancer.
The run will take place on Thursday September 28th @ 12:45 (presentation in the gym) and 1pm for the actual run. Students are asked to bring their water bottles.
I would need 2 volunteers to help with supervision at designated locations around the block. First 2 to reply to me in email will win! YEAH!

We have already been hit with sickness in the class. I would PLEASE ask that you send a container of wipes to school so we can keep the desks clean and as germ-free as possible. It really helped last year and this year with more students and closer quarters, germs will continue to hit us if we don't strike now. Thank you for your help in this matter.

We still have not hammered out the details about how to mix the classes for Social Studies and Science with Mme Phelan, so those are still on hold a bit. Thank you for your patience.
This weekend I gave the parents a homework to do and received 7 back this morning. Please take the time to fill out information about your child so that I am better able to help them out. If you lost the sheet, I will attach another one here. Thank you for your cooperation.
This week in learning:
FLA: comic books or in Fr La Bande dessinée. Students are in groups and learning/reading their comic album and putting on a play about it to work their oral french.
ELA: We are working on "The secret Life of Grown-ups" and students need to finish their rough copy ideas for their own rule by tomorrow. We will be writing good copies and adding illustrations later this week.
MATH: lesson 2 about numbers. How to read problems and figure out which operation is being asked to use. Cheat sheets will be given with vocab to help them out.
MUSIC: research on a genre of music. Chromebooks have been booked and they are being asked to put together a slide show with history and examples of the genre they chose.
REL: what does our name mean and why did our parents name us what they did. Will be for homework if they don't already know.
PHYSED: They have started today and should have gym strip by the next class if they don't already. It is a requirement that students change for this class and it is part of their health mark.

Welcome to the 2017 - 2018 School year!
The first item for the week is for students to be able to say their big numbers in French.
They need to be able to say 3 458 222: which is
trois million, quatre cent cinquante huit mille, deux cent vingt deux ( and write it out too).
If your child is weak in math, it is a good idea to review EVERY night...even if they don't want to. For the PAT, there is now a fast fact section that gives them 15 questions to complete in 15 minutes. Practice, practice practice your multiplication and division tables.
Friday, they have a summer memory drawing due for Religion, glued into their scrapbook.
Every night, without question, reading in French to get back into it.
