This week students have been working in groups creating a "dream home" or "une maison de rêve."  They have very interesting ideas, including a pool filled with bacon and an elevator to the moon! Next week will be another busy one.  On Tuesday afternoon we will be going geocaching with Mr. Savoy.  On Thursday morning, students will be watching the movie "Hotel Transelvania" with the other Grade 5 class.  Thursday afternoon students will be participating in a "theme day" like we did last year with apples and Christmas.  The them this week is Halloween.  Classes will be moving to 5 differnt teachers during the afternoon, participating in various activities involving Math, Science, Art and Reading.  Friday morning our class will be helping the younger classes as they have their theme day.  Friday afternoon will be class as "normal."  Well, as normal as it can be with us all dressed up for Halloween!  Students can wear their costumes to school that day.  No masks are allowed in the halls, but they can wear them in our class.

October 21st, 2014 Grade 5 Parents, We are very excited to tell you that again this year, our Grade 5 students will be having an Elementary Graduation Banquet.  It will be held in the cafeteria of our school on Tuesday, June 9th in the evening. (Time to be announced)  Students will be allowed to bring 2 guests with them to the banquet.  We have a lot of exciting things planned for the banquet.  There are a few things that we need you, the parents, to help with to make this banquet a success. ·        Please send in 3 pictures of your child. o   A baby picture o   A picture from primary (Kindergarten-Grade2) o   A picture of them in Grade 5 These pictures do not have to be professionally done.  They can be silly, funny or cute J I will scan them and send them back home. Please have these in by Friday, November 14th. ·        We will be having a bake sale this month to raise money for our banquet.  This will be held on Wednesday, November 19th.  Please send treats that can easily be sold individually. ( cookies, cupcakes, squares, candy, etc..) cakes and pies can be sold if they are individually wrapped. We will be having some more fundraisers over the next few months. We want the students this year to have all the benefits that last year’s Grade 5 enjoyed. Thank you for all your support. Mme Jen/Mrs. Keenan
