Assessments Galore

 

After a grueling 6 weeks working on exhibition, the Grade 6 class got no rest today. They worked on completing their final exhibition journal entry, a reflection on exhibition as a whole, and then got started on this term’s assessments for our new math unit, this term’s DRA, and this term’s OWA. This took all day and most students have not completed this work. We will work on completing these tasks before the end of the week.

Students attended French and gym class today.

Students should be working on spelling bee practice in preparation for the contests. The Grade 7 contest will take place this Wednesday. The Grade 6 context will take place on Monday.

Students are reminded to return their permission form to attend this week’s MYP Shakespeare production ‘The Battle for Juliet’ on Wednesday, May 9th in exchange for a donation of a canned food or non-perishable food item. These forms are now past due. Parents are invited to attend the performance on Thursday night at UTM’s Mist Theatre. Talk to Ms. Padua at reception for your tickets. The PYP teachers are hosting a dance for PYP students whose parents are attending the performance on Thursday night.

Our trip to Cedar Glen takes place tomorrow. Grade 6s are asked to come to school dressed in their gym uniform. They should bring along water, hat, sunblock, and any additional items for the weather, e.g. raincoat, sweater, etc. Everyone needs to arrive at 7:45 am as the bus leaves at 8 am. We will return at 4 pm.
 
Students who are participating  received a waiver form for Bubble soccer. These are due this Friday.
