NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER
Grade 1/2 Students were working in 2 groups and accumulating points by answering questions about animals from the wetlands (les marais). They listened to descriptions to answer. It was a very even race!
Grade 7 Students worked on unit vocab while playing hangman, and completed a crossword puzzle about animals/environment.
Grade 8 Students went over their final exam, and reflected on what they could have done to boost a few marks. Overall, good work.
Grade 5/6 The theme this week is endangered animals around the world. After a round of hangman (their favourite game), they will have a short presentation about an animal of their choice. Gather information about which continent they live on, a short description, and what is their biggest predator.
Grade 3/4 Well, what can I say! They have become the 'dream team in the making', and they are pretty proud about this title. They beat the grade 7/8 on the same crossword puzzle. Bravo Macy, for getting 500 house points and winning the contest. This group was all about collaboration when it came to dictionary skills and helping Macy finish first.
JK/SK Lots of fun with a mix and match of vocabulary, searching the classroom for objects and colours, and finally singing Fablanimo, of which they seem to love and sing everywhere around the school.

Grade 1/ 2 Today, students were knee deep in the wetlands, well not quite. They labelled Canadian animals from the wetlands. The internet provided colourful pictures so the students were able to represent the true colours for each creature.
Grade 5/6s worked on a brochure to help future students with loads of advice. Lots of fun!
Grade 3/4 Students broke into groups and brainstormed (reflected, really) on what they most like this past year, and compiled the information.
JK/SK Yes, they sang Fablanimo, and they are SUPERB! Also, they completed an activity about what summer vacation may bring.
And just for good measure, they each took turns to count 0-30. WOW!

***Please note that I will be collecting textbooks by end of next week. I you have your textbook at home, please make sure to bring it back to school.
Grade 1/2 We had the assembly for the month of June this morning. When students worked on assembling sentences in groups of 2 or 3, they used the following structure: noun + verb + preposition + another noun. For example: Le crayon + est + sur + la table.
The combinations are endless, and I had to deplete my stash of stickers! Bravo!
Grade 3/4 The class started with: En fin de semaine, je vais.....Everyone contributed. The last activity was the drawing of a backyard after a strong wind. French vocabulary and dictionary skills were on the menu today. Great class.
Grade 5/6 Today was about putting sentences together, and matching verbs. Great job all around. The last part of class was about making rapping rhymes with the weather. Much fun for everyone.
Grade 7 Students were divided in 3 groups, and completed a game of Jeopardy with French verbs, unit vocabulary and novel study.
Grade 8 Today was the final preparation for the exam which will take place on Tuesday, June 6.
JK/SK The class was a bit late starting, because of this afternoon play. They sang Fablanimo and listened to another story about feelings as told from barnyard animals.
