Bonjour,

This morning Councillor Diane Deans came in to speak to the Grade 5's students. The students were amazing! They asked excellent questions. They were attentive and involved in the presentation. They have learned more about the municipal level of the government. 

Merci beaucoup les amis! Je suis fière de vous!

My French goals to improve my communication.

Bonjour,

This morning your child had to reflect on how he/she was communicating in French class. We came up with several ways to improve our oral communication in class or outside class. Here are the student's ideas. 



Your child is coming home today with his/her personal goals (4 to 5 goals). Please encourage your child to speak French more often in class. It is a safe environment. We are working on our Growth Mindset.

Friendly reminders:
-Dictée to be corrected and signed for tomorrow.
-Pop quiz to be signed for tomorrow.
-Goal sheet to be signed for tomorrow.
-It is Mlle Hagar's last week with us. We are wishing her the best.

Merci pour votre collaboration et support!

Mme Mathieu & Mlle Hagar
