I decided it would be nice of me if I gave you a heads up of the words you are going to be quizzed on this Friday. Most of the words are from previous quizzes but I did choose some that came up in the spelling test of 100 words I gave you this week. Here you go!
1. successful 2. rights 3. write 4. character 5. influential 6. inspirational 7. standard 8. thousandths 9. align 10. notation 11. guess 12. capacity 13.anxious 14. achieve 15. significance * guarantee I hope you are working on your finishing touches from the 'To Do' list. After giving you some more time today, some of you still have work to do and most everyone can say, "I'm done and I'm proud of my work!" On Friday I will be collecting your Science duo tangs. Make sure all pages are completed to the best of your ability. That also includes your Telus Spark booklet with little added facts of interest :) Please have you duo tang here tomorrow for a fun activity I have planned. We have library tomorrow. Remember to bring in your book so you can renew and/or choose the new book you want to read for the Monologue Book Talk.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with loved ones. I know I did and I ate way too much turkey!
There will not be a new spelling list this week as last week was short and this one is too. I will make up a test of 15 - 20 words using words from all of the spelling tests to date (excluding the french words). Practice all of the words, especially the words that gave you difficulty because you won't know until Friday which words are on the test. Be thinking about a book at your reading level that you would like to do a book report on. Preferably a book that you have not read before. We will discuss this further in the week about the details of the report and when it is due. Your Science title page, 'Trees and Forests' along with the worksheets in your green duo tang are to be completed and handed in by this Friday. Also you are to hand in your Telus Spark booklet from the Field Trip last Wednesday. You can include interesting fun facts that you learned and/or have researched because your imagination was sparked! Keep working on completing the items on your 'To Do' checklist. Assignments are due this Friday. It may sound like a lot, but if you have been organized and keeping pace with assignments all it should require is editing/revising for interesting details and embellishing your work to make it your very best. I just want to take this opportunity to thank the boys and girls from Mrs. Peterson's class for the outstanding engagement and behavior at Telus Spark yesterday. I was proud to say, "Yes, this is my group of wonderful individuals!" You guys were well behaved, asked excellent questions, and were outstanding Grade 6 representatives of Midnapore School. A big thank you to the volunteers as well who supported our group.
Today we had buddies and made turkeys in honor of Thanksgiving. I hope everyone enjoys time with family and friends this weekend! No School on Monday. On Tuesday we have our pictures taken! Remember to wear your smile for Picture Day :) Have you completed the items on your "To Do" checklist? I will extend the deadline, but do try to get everything done by the end of next week! Check out the typing practice [email protected]. Use your name and then the last four digits of your students number for your password. Have Fun! Today the students got their new spelling words for the week and wrote them in the agenda. You can also look on Saturday, October 1st where I posted the words early as the test is this Thursday, (-no school for students on Friday).
The October book orders are due back by Tuesday, October 11th (-no school on Monday, October 10th, Thanksgiving). I'm very excited for the Telus Spark field trip coming up this Wednesday! We have a lot of free exploration time so take a look on their website for what 'sparks' your interest and maybe you can convince your chaperone to visit that station.There is so much to see and do! Be practicing your dance moves because we are performing our dance on Thursday at 10:15. All are welcome to attend to see you dance,dance, dance, dance! Can't stop the feeling! If you wanted to put some extra care into the illustration for the Rights of the Child that you have to represent, you are welcome to do so. We will be practicing with water color pencil crayons tomorrow and laminating our best work. Also, we will be preparing to do that art activity tomorrow from That Artist Woman website. Please bring in cardboard paper if you have any and I think we will use sponge and/or bumpy foam if we find any. Dress for art in other words! Where did the month of September go? Time flies when you're working hard AND having fun!
It's kind of a gloomy Saturday so I thought I might give you a heads up for the coming week's spelling list words. (You're going to have to spend time indoors anyway right?) This week the test will be on Thursday as Friday is a Professional Development Day - (no school for you, just the teachers!) The first seven words are ; The days of the week - Les jours de la semaine, and the other words you will be coming across in our literacy centers around inspirational people of the 20th century. Good Luck! Spelling List Words (for the week of October 3rd – 6th ) 1. lundi 9. innovation 2. mardi 10. inspirational 3. mercredi 11. declared 4. jeudi 12. discrimination 5. vendredi 13. influential 6. samedi 14. intentional 7. dimanche 15. model 8. reconcile *Bonus deliberation |
