What did you do at school today? JUNE EDITION

Image
lundi, le 5 juin: The students had Art and a special Rugby presentation during their Library period today. In français, we went over vocabulary for les sports, les activités, les verbes, et les équipements. Next we reviewed the verb faire de. In Math, the students had a probability test on google classroom. We had Reading Buddies, followed by more time to complete the Math test. We ran out of time for English, but I have sent them home with a review sheet on similes and metaphors to review what we have been doing in class. Just a reminder that this coming Thursday is our school's Jump Rope for Heart Event.  Try to get the donation envelopes in before the event.  Also, Friday is a PA Day.  There will be no school for students on that day. mardi, le 6 juin: In français, the students did some translation work using jouer, faire, les activités, and les endroits. In Sciences Sociales, we reviewed the different stages to become a knight in the Midd

In Études Sociales, we spent some time learning how to use a French/English dictionary properly to help them when reading new Social Studies texts in French.  We continued to learn about the main industries in Nova Scotia. In Science, Ms. Takahashi has them working on creating their own Science games.

mercredi, le 1er février: In français, the students completed some ER verb practice on Google classroom. In Math, they reviewed elapsed time and analog clocks in preparation for the quiz on Friday. In English, the students worked on their narratives about their Reading Buddies. Don't forget that we are going skating tomorrow afternoon so anyone who has his/her own skates and/or helmets needs to bring them to school tomorrow. jeudi, le 2 février: In français, I taught the students how to tell the time in French.  We watched some videos about it before discussing it as a class and doing some in-class practice.  The videos are below: We got fitted for helmets and that was the morning!  We had a great afternoon skating despite having a minor hiccup when we arrived (the arena was not ready and we needed to wait until someone could come out and get it ready for us).  They should be nice and tired for you tonight.  I was really impressed by the chil
