September 5 - September 8

  September 5 - September 8 



Hello Room 18 Families! 

Welcome to our classroom blog! We are very excited to share our learning with you here throughout the year. 

This year, the blog will be written each Friday by our Grade 5/6's as part of ELAL collaborative writing. You can expect to find pictures and descriptions of important learning and events from our week, important upcoming dates, and plans for our week ahead.  Today was our first try at writing the blog together, and students learned to delegate roles, listen to ideas, and collaborate with new peers to achieve their common learning goal: blog writing!

A few important things to note for our week ahead. Monday, students will begin their 'All About Me' presentations. They have been given time in class to work on them but will likely need time at home to finish and practice. As well, Friday, September 15 is the Pancake Breakfast starting at 7:30 - 8:00!

    • Sept 11 - All About Me Assignment Due
    • Sept 15 - 7:30 - 8:00 AM Pancake Breakfast - Families invited!
