Happy PA Day

I hope you're all having a great day and playing outside!!

If you can, please bring in a box that we can cut up. We are going to revisit Surface Area and working with nets.

From Mme. Caughey:

Hello everyone,

Hope you are all doing well...

Your assistance is requested to support our students in French... Please help to remind them to access our Google Classroom regularly and prepare for their French presentations (last week of Jan.).

All classes began the play in December before the break - it is posted online to review at home (pronunciations/movement/actions).

Class time has been provided to write out their lines on cue cards (not allowed to read off their booklet script), as well to prepare props and costumes (Level 3 must have costume/props) *Rubric is online too

Grade 6s should be practising for Chat Angora

Lummiss = skoyt3

All next week is dress rehearsals and the last week of January is the final play presentation.

The play booklet is required in class daily because we work on the reading/writing activities in between practising. 

Thank you as always in supporting the French program, not having my own room to post homework reminders or rubrics has been challenging.

Thanks, 
Mme. Caughey

Today we are starting a new writing unit about Fractured Fairy Tales. We looked at different Fairy Tales and analyzed the story features that are needed inorder to create a narrative story.
Tomorrow we will begin our next novel study: Thunder Over Kandhar. This novel will be read in class and the students will complete Literature Circle Role Sheets each week. Rough copies of the role sheets are due on either Wednesday or Thursday and good copies are always due on Friday's. Each student has 5 different role sheets, one due each week. They are in groups and will share their role sheet every Friday in their groups. If their sheet is not completeed before their Literature Circle they will not be able to participate and therefore lose oral communication marks for that week.
