*Grade 6s will be going to Wilma Hansen School for their tour tomorrow morning. Please be on time! 8:45am - noon.
*Councillor Demong will be visiting our Grade 5/6 classes to discuss local government with the students on Thursday, March 2. Students will prepare by ensuring they have questions they are curious about that Mr.Demong can answer for us.
*We worked on contractions this morning to ensure we are writing contractions properly and placing apostrophes in the correct spot.
*Students have their IRP expectations for their projects. We are working through the components of the book report together. So far, we have worked on summaries. Students who have finished their books are able to start the summary of their books. We will have class time for this. There are a few of us who need to keep read, read, reading! Our goal was to have our books read by TODAY! If you are behind, ensure you talk to your teacher and that you are reading at home each night! Remember to manage your time!
*Narrative Stories: Our stories and plots are developing! We are working to incorporate the many writing techniques we have worked on and discussed in class. Our stories should show evidence of the elements of a story enhanced by detail through interesting beginnings, sensory imagery, show don't tell and extended endings. We have worked on proper paragraphing, spelling strategies, proper dialogue punctuation and capitalization.
