Reminder - Grade 5FI

Hi,
Just a reminder that the science projects are due this coming Friday, April 4, 2008 - no exceptions. Please let me review your 'question' for the project, if I have not already done so on Monday. I would also like to see the progress of your project Monday afternoon so please ensure your work is at school.
We will be writing the math 'assessment' again this week - the one we wrote at the beginning of the year. This will let us see how much progress has been made in Math.
Enjoy the weekend. Mme Hamilton-Brown

I have had students mention to me that they did not have any homework. I expect that students are reading 20 minutes a night in Freanch and they should also be enjoying an English book. They should be studying the multipliction facts if there is no Math homework, per say. Thank you and please keep up the great effort.

Hi,Today was a busy day in the Grade 5 French Immersion class, although we were missing 8 students. This morning we worked primarily on writing. Using good ideas with strong sentence structure and watching for good use of the verb 'aller' as a verb that uses etre as an auxiliary in the past tense. After lunch we spent a lot of time discussing a quality science fair project. Parents please help your children work to develop a strong question for the reason to investigate and do a science project. The question needs to be supported by a hypothesis - or what the students think the answer to the question is. Then the experiment itself is the proof. Don't forget science fair projects are due for presentation to the class on April 4, 2008.The only homework today was to think about the science project and to read, of course, for 20 minutes.I'm out tomorrow but I expect appropriate behaviour for the Sub Teacher. Those students who are involved in tutoring tomorrow evening please take your Math text book, pencil and paper. Do page 148/9 and start page 146/7.Thanks and good evening. See you all on Wednesday.
