Fort Whyte

We had a wonderful field trip at Fort Whyte yesterday. I was happy with the children's behaviour and very proud of how much they were able to share about habitats and animal adaptations! Enjoy these pictures!

I hope you all had as much fun as I did! 

Field Trip

A correction to the permission slip sent out yesterday. Our field trip is Thursday November 28th. Sorry for the error.

Devoirs

Students: Here is the reminder of how to access your homework this weekend. 

1) Watch one episode of Robin le robot. 
radio-canada - Je regarde - Afficher tout - Robin le robot - p.5 - Frayeur à la foire.

Soyez prêtes à répondre aux questions mardi.

2) Listen/read Le gros monstre qui aimait trop lire. 
Tumble books - français - livres pour enfants - search Le gros monstre qui aimait trop lire.

Ajoutez un commentaire après que vous avez lu l'histoire. Inclus: 3 adjectifs et 3 mots que tu ne connais pas. (Écrivez votre nom à la fin du commentaire.) Essaiez d'expliquer l'histoire à vos parents. 

Parents: Once your child has read the book they are to post a comment which includes 3 adjectives and 3 words that they didn't understand in the story. I also encourage them to explain to you what the story was about. 

Have a great weekend everyone! 

Adjectives and dance parties

It feels like November marks a new chapter in our school year. The leaves have all fallen, the temperature is getting colder, and we're moving to new topics in our studies. I wanted to share some pictures from our Halloween day which involved discussing and using adjectives appropriately to describe our cupcake creatures. After a tour around the school to view costumes, we released some high energy through dance! The room was full of tired children with smiling faces. One fantastic Thursday in my books!

We continue to develop our French language skills in class. I am pleased to hear that students have been using the links I've provided and that they've been studying their dictée at home. I encourage everyone to continue their English reading at home as we are focusing much of our literacy time on French reading for the next while. Strategies are of course transferable, and therefore students should be able to not only explain to you what has happened in their story but what connections they can make to their lives or other stories.

Dance party!
