Weekly Message January 31st-February 4th

I sure hope that all my students took advantage of the amazing weather that we had on the weekend!  It sure was a great one.  The end of January already, and we have a fun-filled week to start the month of February off with a bang.Tuesday is the big day that we will be starting our first day of testing for our Provincial assessment in the Intensive French.  Wednesday we are very fortunate to have a guest speaker coming to inform our students on "Free the Children."  I am certain that all my students will greatly benefit from their presentation.Thursday if all goes well, I will be taking the students to the rink again for their Physical Education class from 2-3pm.  I know how much they all enjoy this activity, and I love seeing them happy.  It will be a great reward from a hard week of work.I look forward to enjoying another week with my super class!

Weekly Message January 24th-28th

Another week has come and gone, and we are now nearing the crunch time.  Soon, we are going to have our provincial test and I want to make sure my students are as prepared as possible.This week we will be working hard on some demand writing pieces in french.  The students are conditioned to write their paragraphs using my models, but during their testing, they are not going to have this opportunity.  Due to these circumstances, I have to prepare the students in this manner before the big day.Mme Tobin-Forgrave will be dropping by our classroom on Friday for a visit, and to help me in the preparations for the test.  We always look forward to her friendly visits to our classroom!  Hopefully we will have a full week of school this week with no more snowstorms, so that we don't miss out on a minute of preparation time!Enjoy your week everyone!

Wow!  We are half way through the hard month of January already.  The nights already seem to be getting longer!  Now, if it would just get daylight earlier our mornings would be much easier.This week we have tons of fun planned!  First of all, Monday morning at 9:30 is skating with the Premier and our local MLA.  Then on Tuesday, MAD Science is coming to our school to give a presentation.  Next, on Thursday the class is going skating again with me for our Physical Education class from 2-3pm.  If any parents want to join us for this skate you can find us at the rink.  Finally it is Friday and then we only have one more week of the Intensive French program.  I hope you all enjoy this incredibly fun week!  I wonder what next week will bring for fun?
