2 School Days until Exhibition


 

Students worked on reviewing integer concepts in math today. They completed all corrections in their review package. These are coming home today. The integers unit test will take place tomorrow.

We continued working on exhibition for the remainder of the day. At the beginning of the day students practiced their BLS. Then they rehearsed their presentations and worked on their visual displays. Finally we moved all props and work to the auditorium. We will be working out of the auditorium for the next couple of days as we rehearse.

Students have been asked to forward their French videos, PSAs, and Powtoons to Maram. She has been nominated by the class to assemble all these.

Students are to come to school wearing their BLS costume. All props for the black light show are needed at school. Full uniforms should be at school on a hanger, ready for students to change into. Each student needs a bag to hold their BLS costume once they change out of it.

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 – tbd

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. Students are asked to start bringing in these items now.

 

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.

Those participating in the Caribou math contest are to arrive at 7:15 tomorrow to be ready to begin the math contest at 7:30 am.

Students have decided to order dinner from Pizza Hut and a Hakka restaurant for Friday’s dinner. We will look at menus tomorrow. Students will then know how much money to bring for Friday.
