Thursday, Dec. 22nd

Well that's the end of that!.... For a couple weeks!

We have been keeping very busy this week, right until the end. 

In math we have been practicing our multiplication and addition skills by playing games. 

In science we have finished off our Waste In Our World unit. Students created their final life cycle posters, which are proudly on display in the hallway.

In Social we are very close to wrapping up our work on the regions of Alberta. 

In English students will have the chance to finish off their diorama when they return after the break.

In Spanish we will continue to work with the house, verbs, writing, read and listening!


On our last day, today, we made the desks into blanket forts and read, did some carolling, had a dance party, did some art and took on some technology-based tasks, posted in Google Classroom this morning. Unfortunately, we ended our day today with a little bit of disappointment, as students did not participate well in showing respect for the classroom and cleaning up after themselves, so we had to have another chat about that. We will continue to work together as a team (students and teachers) to create a collaborative environment where all students participate to grow their skills in independent problem solving and understanding of respect and kindness. 

On behalf of both of us (Srta. Marasescu and Srta. Sutherland), we would like to wish all our fabulous students and their families and very warm, relaxing and joyful holiday break. We will look forward to reuniting on January 9th!
