Nov 11-15

Bonjour,

Please remember that next week is a short week. Students don't have school on Thursday and Friday as we have Parent Teacher conferences.

In the afternoon of November 19th, our students will have the chance to see the slam poet and rapper MC June who will perform in the gym.

Math
We are continuing to work on multiplication and division. Students need to practice their basic facts at home. Here is the weekly homework. It will be due on Wednesday as it is a short week.
Here is a package of supplementary activities that students can use for extra practice if needed.

Science
Please check Power School for the most recent grades. The students will receive their test next week and as always, will be encouraged to share their results with parents.

As you will soon start decorating your house for Christmas, I would kindly ask that you think of us before throwing out any sets of Christmas lights that you no longer need.  I am already planning our electricity unit that we will start this spring and am in need of small Christmas lights to be used in our electricity project. If you have any old but working sets of small Christmas lights you would be able to donate, please send them to school with your child at your earliest convenience. Thanks in advance for your help.Here is a photo to show the type of lights we are looking for.
Thank you very much!
Mme Richard

Social Studies
Students had their Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Lowlands region test.  Results will be posted at some point this weekend.  Students will continue working on their project : Ma ville.  This week, they had to choose a Canadian city and start researching specific things about it.  Here is the guidelines and rubrics, as well as an example of the research : Ma villeexemple.  We will be working on this next week and part of the week after that.  The presentation should start on November 28th.

FLA
This week in FLA we continued working on the noun (proper & common), how to change them from masculine to feminine and how to change them from singular to plural. We had a period to practice using this website and students are welcome to use this website at home. We also went to the library and pick a new French book.

The next song is Je cours from Marie-Mai and the lyrics are here. We will listen to it and fill the blanks on Wednesday, November 20th.
