This morning we began our day with writing assessments. I
have met with each student and we have discussed each student's strengths and
weaknesses with respect persuasive writing in letter format. As a class we
created a checklist of what should be included in persuasive writing. Students
wrote their summative persuasive writing piece while referring to their
original writing and the checklists we created. The challenge today was for
students to improve on their first attempt while writing on a new topic.
Students who completed their writing assessment worked
independently on completing their circulatory packages. Students who did not
get done in class are bringing these packages home to complete them as
homework.
SJA performed their Christmas concert for an audience today.
Grade 6s who had completed all their work got to sit in and watch the concert
too.
Grade 6s attended French and Gym class today.
Tomorrow is Casual Day. The bake sale continues tomorrow.
The Christmas concert takes place at 7 pm tomorrow evening.
SJA's student council is collecting Toys for
Tots. Toys must be unwrapped. Canadian Tire money is also being collected. When
students put their toy under the tree (at the school front desk) they can write
their name on a Christmas tag and hang it on the tree at the front desk.
