Le coin français
For a few weeks now, students have been learning about storytelling. We discussed the parts of a story (beginning - middle - end) and what happens in each segment. Students then looked at characters and characters straits (adjectives) to describe and also setting. They then broke into small groups to discuss ideas based on three main characters. The fox (le renard), the mouse (la souris) and the hedgehod (l'hérission). Students acted out their stories orally and then drew each story segment in their cahier. Feedback was given and student have been working on making improvements to the oral stories. We look forward to showcasing them in our last week of school.
We began our final oral language project of the year about animals and students have found creative ways to showcase their work. We are learning. many interesting facts about animals. Thanks for your effort.
Our beach party was a hit and students enjoyed writing about summer "C'est l'été"! in their journals after brainstorming a bunch of ideas and vocabulary.
Mathématiques
Students have been working on writing their own addition and subtraction problems and are looking forward to challenging their peers to solve their math stories.
Science
We had an amazzzzing presentations about bees from Jackie Seidel and learned so much about their importance in the ecosystem, how to recognize different bees, how to compare bees and wasps and just how cool bees are. Students have also been looking at the lifecycle of plants and animals and we are pretty excited about our bean plants, sunflower plants and "Cutie" our pet praying mantis.
