1 More Day to get ready for Exhibition

 

Students wrote the integers unit test today.

We continued working on exhibition for the remainder of the day.

Based on today’s rehearsal, students have discovered that they still need some props and uniform pieces. Also, some visual display items still need finalising. All these should be at school tomorrow.

Students should be memorising their cue cards.

Grade 6 students are required to bring items for the refreshment table for both morning and evening sessions. Students have made the following commitments regarding refreshments:

Mehar – pineapple

Adiyah – strawberries

Zane – watermelon

Laryssa – apple

Wael – bananas

Nikhil – cantelope

Nicole, Jarniko, Alex – cheese

Lucas, Emilia, Alexis – crackers

Rishaan – samosas

Maram, Taran, Celeste - Water (24 x 500 mL)

Hersh, Krish, Kian – Ice

Jonathan – carrot cake

If possible, peel and cut fruit for us. We will assemble a platter at school. Please send fruit and cheese on Thursday or Friday morning. Other items may be brought in earlier.  Students are reminded to bring in one package of NUT & PEANUT FREE cookies and 2 packages (8 in a package) of juice if they haven’t already done this.

If possible, please send a lamp to school to help light up the tables as we have removed the bulbs in the auditorium for the BLS.

Students are asked to arrive at school at 8 am on Friday.

Each group should keep working on their ‘Items Needed’ list  where they record all items needed for exhibition day, such as full uniform pieces, French component costumes & props, BLS costumes & props, items for art display, items for visual display, etc.

 

Students should be working on spelling bee practice in preparation for the contests that will take place soon.

Students have decided to order dinner from Pizza Hut and a Hakka restaurant for Friday’s dinner. More to follow about this.

Look out for a letter coming home today about next week’s MYP Shakespeare production ‘The Battle for Juliet’.  Grade 6s will attend a performance on Wednesday, May 9th in exchange for a donation of a canned food or non-perishable food item.
