Bonjour!
I know it has been a while. It's an extremely busy time of year and we've been doing a lot of work.
I know it has been a while. It's an extremely busy time of year and we've been doing a lot of work.
I wanted to update you on a few things that we have been working on in our classroom.
In Language we have been learning about Narrative writing. Students will be developing their own narrative stories towards the end of November.
We have also been reading a book by J.L. Witterick called "My mother's secret". It is a GREAT book, and we are all really into it. It's about events that occurred during the Holocaust, so we are learning a lot about World War II.

C'est mardi le 30 septembre 2014.
Salut!
Today the students performed a song that they've been working on for the last few weeks. They did such an AMAZING job! I am extremely proud of them. I have uploaded the link on YouTube for those of you that were not able to make it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwyxS53GjbU&feature=youtu.be
MATH: I am sure that the students have mentioned to you that we will be having a Math Test this Friday October 3rd. The Math test will be on Chapter 1.
Grade 6 - Lesson 1 - Writing Pattern Rules
Lesson 2 - Relationship Rules for Patterns
Lesson 3 - Variables in Expressions
Lesson 7 - Equal Expressions (This will be taught on Wednesday October 1st)
Grade 5 - Lesson 1 - 2-D Patterns
Lesson 2 - Patterns in Tables
Lesson 3 - Solve Problems using Patterns
Lesson 4 - 3-D Patterns
Format: * Short answer questions.
* Create and Complete Patterns.
* Creating tables and extending them.
* Explain and Justify your thinking.
LANGUAGE: We have been working on Sentence Structures, specifically how to avoid fragments and run-on sentences. It is essential that students know how to write strong sentences before we can move onto writing paragraphs, which will be our next step.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with your questions.
Thanks,
Mlle.Ibrahim

Welcome back!!
I hope you have all had an eventful, yet restful summer.
It is great being back at school and seeing so many familiar faces in our classroom.
Thank you to all the parents and guardians that come out to curriculum night this past Monday, it was great seeing all of you.
Just like last year, I will continue to check the agenda on a regular basis. I will also be checking the email that is associated with this blog which is mlleibrahim4@gmail.com. You are also more than welcome to contact the school at (416) 396-6230.
I will be continuing with our weekly vocabulary lists. Students will get the words every Tuesday, their tasks will be due Wednesday and their spelling test will be every Monday.
Math: We are starting with chapter 1 which is Patterning. The 4 other strands that will be covered are: Number Sense and Numeration, Data Management and Algebra, Geometry and Measurement.
French: The French curriculum has changed and students will be graded on 4 strands now. These four strands are Speaking, Listening, Writing and Reading.
Science: Mr.Coleman will be their Science Teacher.
Music: Mr.Rosenhal will be their Music Teacher and they are lucky enough to all be band members!
On Tuesday, September 30th students will be performing a song at the assembly. Please come out and support :) Also, here is a link for the song so students may practice at home: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwpzXxU7VWk
I have updated the Vocabulary list under the Devoir tab.
Looking forward to another great year!

Bonjour tout le monde.
We've been extremely busy in our classroom and we have a lot of events coming up in the next couple of weeks before school comes to an end!
June 10th- FUN FAIR!!! This is an exciting event for the whole community. Students are asked to participate in our Back-to-School classroom basket that will be auctioned off on the 10th. They are asked to bring in a toonie by tomorrow June 5th.
Sciences-Sociales: As many of you know we have been working on Medieval times in our classroom. Students are working in groups to become experts on certain elements that were important during that time. The project is due next Wednesday - June 11th.
Under the devoir tab you will find the updated list of vocabulaire.
