Lundi le 21 septembre: This week in learning:
FLA: we switch with what the other class was doing. So the nouveau 7 will write their comic strip based on a fairy tale, using the vocabulary learned for la bande dessinée. The other 19 will do a PP (or other technology) and oral presentation, talking about themselves. No notes, just slides and talking in French.
Math: we have done the following so far; reading and writing big numbers in French; problem solving; multiples of numbers. Coming up Factors, Prime and Composite numbers. Check the GC daily for homework.
SCIENCES: forensics continues. The nouveau 7 should make themselves a title page for Preuves et Recherches to keep their notes organized for each unit. Today we looked at height and how shoe size can affect evidence. We also watched a video on how your eyewitness accounts are not very accurate.
ES: Mme Browne will now be teaching this subject to both classes and I will be teaching both classes science.
ELA: we begin a novel study called "Chasing Vermeer". It is a mystery and goes well with our science unit. Students will have time to read in class and then chapters and comprehension questions will be assigned for homework.
RELIGION: all students should have the following in their scrapbook/journal: prayer, fingerprint and journal reflection questions. The 19 should also have a paragraph about where they know God is present in Creation. Looking for volunteers for readings for the opening liturgy this Friday. Email me.
Music: here is the video to practice ASL of O'Canada.
