We had a full day! Students are going home with an agenda full of notices and forms and I asked them to have their parents fill out the information in the front of their agendas. Today we worked on “Je m’appelle _________. Et toi, comment t’appelle tu? and the most important classroom phrase of all “Est-ce que je peux aller aux toilettes?”.


Homework – read and record in reading log.

Ask your child about Sebastian and the picture on the front of their reading log.

We are on day 3 of “Totally Joe”. We are reading this book as a class novel study but all students are expected to keep up their personal duo-tangs with their best work as their daily work will be marked. As we read they are expected to take notes on the setting and 4 of the characters, keep adding to the plot line with a note for each chapter and prepare a question for each chapter. Questions need to be higher level thinking.

We have been having difficulty bringing our narrative to a finish but students will have their third and last day to type the piece in the computer lab tomorrow. Hopefully we will wrap this up before the end of the week.

Day 2 of Reading like a Writer has been added to the powerpoint presentation.

Posted: December 7, 2016

Students were introduced to their next book report, "Reading Like a Writer", today. The powerpoint presentation we are using in class has been uploaded and will be updated as we work on it as it's a working document. We will spend about 10 school days on this report so students should divide their book up into chunks so it will be completed on time. This report will be completed as they read.
