A huge thank you to all the parents who volunteered for yesterday's field trip to MdH. The students quite enjoyed the day and they were very well behaved. Please remember however, that you still have 31/2 months left of Grade 6 before you embark on your next chapter. We still have a lot of learning left to do.

Coming up: 

March 18: essay Good copy

March 20: vehicle to show movement using air

March 21: Music Lyrics for Art

March 21: Present Ward profiles

March 26: Test ES Municipal gov't

MATH tests going home today for signature 

This week in Learning:

MATH: we begin Transformations and symmetry, which align with coordinates on a graph. New this year, we use the +/- numbers on a graph as well.

SCI: several students did not bring materials to build a parachute yesterday. They have one more chance for Wednesday. They will take their free time in the a.m. to begin it and a little time during Science class to finish it, like everyone else. I provide the weight. Next up, the parts of an airplane, vocabulary in French

ES: we are finishing up looking at the counselors and will finish the unit looking at School Boards. Unit test to come before the break.

FLA: we are doing some group reading comprehension. Next week we will look at the month of la Francophonie

ELA: we will finish our opinion essays this week. On PG day, teachers asked what the functional writing will be for the PAT's and no one had an answer for us. Stay tuned.

FOR CTF DAY 2: Blogging permissions required

Religion: we continue our Lenten journey

ART: have lyrics to a favorite song by the next class. Clean and appropriate.

This week: MdH Thursday

Next week: theme day : Fancy dress up

                    

 

 

I am extremely proud of the St Luke's Got Talent committee for their hard work and dedication to this event. They worked tirelessly to put it together and take ownership of it. I didn't quite get a picture of all of them but will do so soon. 

Merci Katelyn, Ben, Sarah and Emily. 

(And Emmett for the tech side) 

Weekly UPDATE:

 Math test tomorrow

For Monday students need to bring materials only to make a parachute; something for the chute and something for the cords. They will make it in class and then we will test them when the weather warms up.

This week in Learning:

MATH: test this Thursday; students should be studying and asking questions if they are confused about perimeter, area volume, and angles. A lot of students are having difficulties multiplying decimals and should be practicing. 

SCI: poster on how their creature flies due March 7th. Today we looked more closely at (lift) La Portance.

ES: The government services sheet and your family is now overdue. Students are researching a Ward  and will try to convince me to live in their Ward through a presentation of information found. 

We will look at how we can contribute to the municipal gov't and how school boards work.

FLA: verbs=imparfait; working on an opinion letter, format and proper grammar.

ELA: how to write an essay/expository writing. Students need a topic by Wedn.

Religion: the Beatitudes and 10 commandments quiz beginning next week. Consecrated posters due today.

Health: ce que je mange due Thursday

Those students who are on Peer Support need to have their permission forms signed for Mme Aimee or else they will not be able to participate. They were sent directly to parents emails.

I am still missing permission forms for our trip to Madeleine d'Houet. 

 

Week update:

Social Studies went home yesterday for signature, ask your child about it.

A math test will be next week, probably toward the end of the week. Begin reviewing angles, perimeter, area and volume
