Day 5 – SJA v TMA Speech Contest


 
Students worked on their math test during today’s math time. It was then time for the speech contest. The speeches seem to improve with each passing year, making choosing the winners a very difficult task. Well done to all participants from both schools.


 

After the contest, we had lunch with our Maples friends, a friendly dabbing contest, and even some outdoor snow soccer.

At the end of the day, we continued with our flight unit. We finished off an experiment we started yesterday and then took up all remaining worksheets in our Duo-tangs. Students are bringing their Flight Duo-tangs home today in order to complete their ‘Properties of Air’ mind maps. Everyone has a checklist of criteria that will be used to evaluate their mind map. Mind maps are due on Tuesday. Working on the mind map will help students prepare for the properties of air test on Wednesday.






 

Please note that there is no school for students tomorrow as it is a Professional Development Day for teachers. There is no school on Monday, as it is Family Day.

On Tuesday after the long weekend, we will begin working on our art project for our flight unit. Students will need to bring in a t-shirt that they don’t mind getting very messy with papier mache. Students are also asked to bring in newspapers.

Students are asked to come to school wearing their gym uniforms on Tuesday for the Jump Rope for Heart event. Keep collecting pledges and donations.

Students attended French class today.
