 NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

Well, let me start by saying that this week is represented by researchers, thinkers and knowledgeable students.

Grade 5/6 found a treasure trove of verbs in the unit, and we are only starting Les carrières.

Grade 3/4 have jumped in with both feet into Les roches et minéraux. They are taking turns at showing and telling the class about their findings. They are building a vocabulary bank and realizing that the terminology is similar to French, therefore, they are not afraid to research things in French...THEY CAN READ IT!

Grade 7/8 are taking this week to research their animals and you could hear a pin drop, they are so absorbed they are ignoring the recess bell. It is promising!

Grade 1/2 are completing a few written excercises about buildings and are illustrating parts of their home. Good Work Everyone!!!

JK/SK are looking for a tree that wanted to grow up so fast...ending up as a Christmas tree in a grand house. Later, le bonhomme de pain d'épices will be paying a visit. Oh, and of course, they are rehearsing for the concert.
