Because of their fantastic fundraising efforts, SJA students
were treated to the spectacle of Elsahan - Mr. Monaghan dressed as Frozen's
Elsa. We are impressed that he made it through the entire day wearing those
shoes. If students continue in their efforts, poor Mr. Palumbo will have his
legs waxed very soon. Ouch!!
In math we began a new measurement unit. Students learned
about variables, and formulas when calculating perimeter for polygons. They are
asked to complete practice questions on page 344 & 345 of the MMS textbook.
During inquiry time, students continued working on
conducting their surveys, composing their interview questions, creating a
slideshow, planning their display boards, editing their French component, and
working on their art piece. Students who did not complete the minimum amount of
work had to stay in during recesses and gym to get caught up.
15 School Days Till Exhibition
Groups who have had their art ideas approved should begin
bringing in art supplies.
Grade 6s had French and Gym class today.
