This morning we started with number sentences and strategies for solving basic facts questions. We discussed the 7 times tables specifically and encouraged students to choose this set for memorization, as there is no handy trick. Students worked on some practice questions. In French, we continued working on clothing vocabulary. Students described their own outfits and worked on a "Mot Mystere" to practice their vocabulary. We will have a check-in on Wednesday, so students are encouraged to practice their vocabulary tonight and tomorrow. Students had more time to work on their Decade Writing in LA. This afternoon, students had time to work on unfinished work. We continued working on our Interior Plains notes. We ended the day by reading some of Chapter 9 of The Boundless.

We are in need of a volunteer for our Ski/Snowboard day on February 25. Please email me directly if you are able to come! Thanks in advance!

Due Dates:
- Les vetements check in on Wednesday, January 15
- Opera auditions (for interested students) on Thursday, January 16
- Birch Tree Art due Friday, January 17
- Arctic Region poster due Thursday, January 23

Overdue Work:
- December Quote

Science Fair will be held Wednesday, January 22. Students involved in the fair must get their tri-folds to school before this day. Reminder: tri-folds are not allowed on the bus.

Please return the last few report card envelopes and ski/snowboard forms ASAP!

Thank-you for your flexibility and enthusiasm as we begin this process of emergency distance learning! As I've mentioned, we are building toward the launch of our Google Classroom on Monday morning. This will be a very important space that will function as our online classroom. This is where you will be able to find important information, your assigned work for each week, and resources necessary to complete that work. When you first log in to the Classroom on Monday (through a link that will arrive in your educbe email that morning), the amount of work there might look overwhelming. I have decided to upload a whole week's worth of work at once, to allow you to work through it at the pace that works best for you. Some of the assignments have been split up by day of the week; this is a suggestion to help you decide what to work on when. However, it is ultimately up to you and your family how you would like to progress through. Feel free to do more than the one day's wort

Hi Grade 5 Families, Please keep an eye out for an email from me this afternoon outlining some of the next steps for learning adventures. I will also be phoning students over the next couple of days to check in and respond to any questions from the email. You need to know that you are missed at school but we are really excited about what lies ahead for us, and we will be sharing details with you through this coming week. I hope all of you have had a wonderful Spring Break! I have been using some of this time to catch up on my pile of books that I haven't had a chance to read. I hope each of you has got to spend some time doing some of your favourite activities!
