Le Papillon

Hi folks,

we are just wrapping up things - we are just about done all of the academic stuff! Things are quickly moving to a close. One more week and school will be out for the summer!

Social Studies - The students are done reading "Medieval Times". This week, we will review Le Canada and Medieval Times.

Science - Grade 4 students have completed all science strands. Last week, the Grade 3students invited a Scientist in the School to talk about "Forces". They have also completed the "Plant" strand. We would like you to know that our experimental herb and vegetable garden is starting to take form. Little green leafs are starting to grow out of the ground! How exciting! This week, we will start the final strand called "Structures".

Excursions - Excursions to Black Creek Pioneer Village and Medieval Times are done. This Wednesday, June 22th, we are visiting "Le Papillon". This will be our final excursion! Many parents have volunteered for the joyous event!

EQAO is done...

Hi folks,

EQAO is finally done! At a cursory glance, the results look promising. The clicker may have had something to do with it! Congratulations class!

Social Studies - the focus is on "Medieval Times". Students should be done reading the book by next Monday.

Science - Grade 4 students have completed all strands. For grade 3, we are currently doing "Plants". We hope to start the next strand "Structures" at the end of the week. We will be conducting experiments nearly every day until the end of the year! This week, we were able to make last minute changes and were able to invite a Scientist in the School on Tuesday to cover "Forces". That was a lot of fun and yes, it was all in french!

Excursions - On June 14th, the Grades 3 are going to Black Creek Pioneer Village and the Grades 4 are going to Medieval Times. Money and forms should all have been remitted! Also, please note that "Le Papillon" is on June 22th. This will be our final excursion! All monies should be collected by the end of this week.
