WELCOME TO GRADE 5 FRENCH IMMERSION 16-17 BLOG!
September 2016,
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Welcome once again to the beginning of an exciting new school
year! We sincerely hope that you and your family have enjoyed the summer
vacation. It is with great pleasure that I introduce myself as your child's
French teacher. I am very pleased to be starting a new school year with your
child and hope he or she is ready to embark on an exciting journey with us.
Although the school provides each classroom with the basic
necessities, if you wish to send your child with their own supplies, the items
listed below are particularly useful: glue sticks, handheld covered sharpener,
pencil case.
An indoor pair of running shoes 
for Physical Education class. It is important to keep the school
and the gym clean.
(If you are able to provide your child with some or all of the listed items above, please identify each item 
with your child's name).
Other materials may be
needed throughout the year due to activities or class projects, please see
notes on the blog.
*I have purchased some Bescherelle, however, not enough. If you wish, could you please purchase a Bescherelle for your child. It's a great tool to help conjugate verbs.
COMMUNICATION:
Communication between home and school is very important. The
agenda serves as a homework and communication book. It is a place to write
notes regarding late arrivals, early dismissals, illnesses, change in
transportation, homework difficulties or confusion.
Please sign the agenda
every night. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me via school secretaries @ 613-737-1141 or write a note in your child's agenda
to book an appointment.
HEALTHY EATING:
In order to help promote healthy eating habits, we're asking
that each child eat a healthy snack. I am also asking to refrain from sending
food that contains nuts/almonds/cashews/sesame/seafood/fish as we have children
with severe threatening allergies.
ROUTINE:
A positive attitude is the key of success. Let's keep it all
the time. At the beginning of the school year, we establish a few simple rules
which we expect each student to follow. The rules are discussed as a class and
are based on a respect for others and for the property of others. Structure and
rules promotes a great learning environment. Treat each person with respect and
dignity. It goes a long way. Please talk with your child about what is going on
in our classroom.
THINGS TO DO THIS WEEK:
-Consent form & concussion form to be signed and returned for Friday, September 9th.
-Please read with your child pp.2 to 15 and sign for Friday, September 9th.
DATE TO REMEMBER:
Curriculum night!
Wednesday, September 21st starting@ 6:30 PM.
Sincerely,
Your partner in Education,
