Track & Field

Day 5

 Less than half the class was at St. Jude’s today while the other half participated in track and field. We had a productive day at school. In math I checked everyone’s Q. 1 – 6. Everyone has received these. Students should do corrections and complete the rest of the review package for Monday. The math unit test will be written on Tuesday, May 30^th

 Students met in their groups to discuss chapter 8 of Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson. Once discussions were complete, students had lots of class time to reading chapter 9 and work on the discussion questions.  Any incomplete work is due tomorrow (Monday).

Students used their UOI time to write a persuasive letter to help a fictional friend realise the potential dangers of using social networking sites. The letters are due on Monday.

 The Grade 6s attended French and gym class today.

There is a lot of excitement in the classroom right now as we prepare to leave for our TFC game. See you at pick up time tonight, 10:45 – 11:00 pm.

We still need one more parent volunteer for our Tree Top Trekking trip. This parent must be comfortable with participating in the activities. Please let me know if you are able to volunteer.

 Permission and waiver forms about our Tree Top Trekking trip are past due.

 Our annual Art's Night is only two weeks away!! Please join us on Wednesday, June 7 at 7:00 PM. You may also join us at our dress rehearsal which begins at 1:00 PM. Our theme this year is Music through the Eras! You are in for a fantastic night of art, dance, and song! We are asking that students be at the school 6:30 pm to get ready. We will also be selling treats and baked goods, so get ready for what is sure to be a wonderful evening.
