C'est mardi le 15 decembre 2015.

C'est presque ici, la nouvelle année, mais on continue avec de travail.

We have had a very small class over the last couple of days, due to all of the events happening around the school, however we are still trying to sneak some work in.

This morning we worked on Vouloir, pouvoir et devoir. For those of you that were not in the classroom this is the slideshow that we viewed. Please go over it, and make sure you take note of the irregular conjugations. It is a good idea to take notes. http://www.slideserve.com/billie/vouloir-pouvoir-devoir

Please visit the helpful stuff tab to practice the verbs.

C'est mercredi le 9 decembre 2015.

Bonjour everyone,
The last week of the 2015 school year is fast approaching, and of course we will be celebrating, and wrapping up some school work!

Geography tests were returned yesterday, please make sure you sign them and send them back to school.

Tomorrow, you will be getting your Progress Reports! There is nothing to worry, or stress about, because there is always time to improve, and grow.
This Friday, we will be going to the ACC to watch the 905 and the Raptors compete. Please bring a Boomerang lunch, or you may bring some money to purchase a lunch from there.  Just keep in mind it may not be the cheapest nor the healthiest option.

December 15^th will be pajama and hot chocolate day!!

On December 17^th, we will have our assembly in the afternoon, and our class is planning to put a video together. Please come join us if you are able to.

Also, on the 17^th we will be having our class party. Students are not allowed to bring any snacks, or treats to share from home. I will be collecting 3 dollars from each student, and I will be buying snacks for the class. Please send the money by Wednesday the 16^th if you would like your child to participate. During our party, we will also have an optional gift exchange. Students interested in participating must buy a gender neutral gift that costs $5.00 + taxes.

On December 18^th, Elizabeth and Tharsha will be teachers for the day, as part of our persuasive writing unit. The students were assigned to write a persuasive piece to convince myself and their classmates as to why they should be teacher for the day. The class voted for these two students, and we are very excited to work with them for the day. 

 Have a great day,
Mlle. Ibrahim

What have we been upto?

Salut!

Hope everyone has been enjoying the nice weather! 

FRACTIONS: We have been very busy in our classroom. We are currently working on simplifying fractions, as well as equivalent fractions. 

Here are some websites that you can use to practice:

LE GOUVERNEMENT DU CANADA: In Social Studies we are learning all about the Government of Canada (5), as well as Canada in relation to the world (importation and exportations, 6). You must review your Social Studies folder on a regular basis, even when they do not have homework. 

LANGUAGE: We are learning all about human rights. Students are learning how to successfully respond to comprehension questions using question wording. They are exploring what Lever 4 responses look like.

READING BUDDIES: Every day 4 students  have been working with Ms.Hill's grade 1/2 class and it has been very beneficial for both grades. Students are exploring their roles as leaders and role-models and they are taking it extremely seriously. I am so proud of what they have been accomplishing. 

As the final stretch approaches we are going to continue to work just as hard, and your support is still needed. 

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns, 

Mlle. Ibrahim
