Week of Dec. 8 - 12 Blog 13 (Grade 5/6)

Please take note of the following:

STAYING HEALTHY

1. As the wintery climates remain, it is important for students to keep jackets on outdoors, as well as gloves, scarves and hats.

2. A good night's rest is helping student be ready for learning everyday.

LOCKERS

3. Thanks for ensuring a lock is on your child's locker.

SUPPLIES

4. Some students will need to bring a pencil to school for learning because while we have supplies for learning, pencils are used each day.

CLASSWORK

5. Students completed a bar graph and noted success criteria for making graphs last week. We will continue with expectations until Dec. 19 - the last day of school for the 2025 school year. Students will be bringing home corrected classwork this week. In Language, students submitted reading tasks, text connections and stretching a sentence. We are working on highlighting the strengths and weaknesses in characters who are leaders in the texts, The Animal Choose a Leader and the Sharing Circle. We will also be completing work around the 12 moons of the Indigenous Calendar this week during language classes. In Social Studies, the grade 6s will be writing a test on Canada and its interactions with other communities in the global community. The TEST is on Wed. Dec. 10. They created practice tests for each other on Friday, Dec. 5. In Social Studies, we are discussing the infrastructures in communities and the way in which all 3 levels of government cooperate to solve issues.
