Next week:

 We are still learning and students have a test Monday and Tuesday so that the progress reports can be completed before the break. 

Today we discussed the last day of school. Students will be responsible for cleaning their desks & the classroom before any fun takes place. Any student who does not hand in assignments due will not participate in the festivities. This has been made abundantly clear to all. Students can bring their own salty and sweet snacks (no sharing due to Covid and germs) for a movie chosen by the majority. (Bring your ideas Monday).

We will also have games in French and English. 

Assignments due:

Bande Dessinée

Calendar of the moon

I'm noticing that some students have already miss-placed or used up some of their school supplies. Please check with your child to see if that is the case. Expo markers are always a given; scissors go missing as do rulers. Thank you for your support.

Today students were shown the website "le bon patron" which they can use as a tool to help them write better in French, especially for projects that they do online. It is free and can offer suggestions to be better writers.
