Earth Day

Hi families,

Friday was Earth Day! Students helped clean up the school yard and worked for part of the day with most of the lights off to save energy. We also had a visit from Mme Leslie who taught us how to write a list poem and then helped us present our writing in a stunning way! Some students chose to write cinquains or acrostic poems using the words we brainstormed about la Terre. I love the result!

Here we are working at our math centres (measuring area in lots of fun ways) in the dark!

Words of the Week
Review of ‘oi’ this week. See if your writer can invent some sentences using some of these words. For example, Je vois trois étoiles dans le ciel noir.

étoile, je vois, je dois, bois, j’ai soif, 
poisson, voilà, noir, au revoir, trois
Bonus words: boîte, miroir
