CTF:  Important announcement
Due to the Science Fair tomorrow, CTF production will be on Monday for one hour. Please bring all materials necessary to now make your products, or else work on your advertising.

Tomorrow during the Science Fair students will have the opportunity to do "catch up work". Here is what is due/almost due next week:

MATH: courtepointe
SCIENCES: All info from experiments need to be filled in correctly
ELA: poetry booklet/recital/song
FLA: 30 vocab words
SOCIAL: pamphlet, travail de cartes, Wampum colorier
Religion: Scrapbook and reflection due Monday
ART: spirit animal and Sketchbook due Feb 13

Félicitations...c'était une saison géniale.

This week in Learning:

ELA: finishing poetry. Short quiz will follow next week.

FLA: students were asked to find 30 new words in their daily French reading from the beginning of December to now. Those words are due this Friday. We will have our Hockey Lecture finals this week. TNT will face les Humanaux for a grand prize bag of candy. A comprehension test will follow and hopefully their results will improve from the pre-test.

SCIENCE: continuing to do experiments with air and how it affects things. There is not a lot of homework in this unit but students should be reviewing notes every night.

MATH: we have begun fractions, both improper and mixed. Students should be very familiar with drawing them and telling me what the fraction is that I draw. They should also be able to revert to either form, given one form. ie: improper to mixed and vice versa.

SOCIAL: the use of the Wampum, and how the Iroquois governed themselves.

RELIGION: students were asked to depict a Beatitude. 

IMPORTANT this week:
SCIENCE fair Friday. Students who are participating will be responsable to catch up on anything they miss in class. A huge thanks to Kristina Hansen for once again organizing this worthwhile project.


Jan 29th: Mme Claeys is visiting us from MdH to officially invite us to their open house.

New Year Liturgy: Thursday @ 10am
Library day will be moved to Wednesday @ 11am

I just sent an email to all students with regards to CTF. Please check your gmail. You need to provide the Bank of CTF with receipts for everything that you buy to make your product. This holds you accountable to your Lenders. Thanks.

WOW!!! What an amazing morning!
Student companies presented to 5 members of Parent Council and Mme Wozny and they were GREAT! Felicitations les amis. I was proud of the work you did and the confidence you showed. Now we produce...

This week in Learning:

Math: test today. This week we will begin our unit on fractions, proportions and percentages.

ELA: Poetry continues. Those students who are writing new lyrics to an old song, should have sent me their work in progress. 

FLA: Hockey Lecture continues. Semi-finals will begin this week and I expect Finals next week. After the finals we will have a post test to see if there are improvements in their reading strategies.

SOCIAL: We didn't get to the Wampum last week, so that is on the agenda, as well as how they made decisions.  This is a short unit so expect a test in the next few weeks. I have booked Tpet for Feb 26th as a summary on this unit. It is an in-school field trip and I will be needing volunteers. More information to come.

Science: we continue with experiments on air. Students could be looking on-line for some of their own to see how air works and why it is so forceful.  Did anyone see the Blood moon ecliipse last night? I saw a bit of it at 9h30, but it was rather cloudy. 

RELIGION: We look at the Beatitudes and how they teach us to live.

IMPORTANT: Dragon's Den tomorrow am in the room across from the office. Several parent council members will there to hear your children pitch their product.
NO school on Friday.
