Food Drive

 We are collecting non-perishable food items for our food drive.  Donations can be brought to school by students until Wed., Dec. 9th.  Thank you in advance for your generosity.

Progress Reports

 Progress reports will be available to parents on Tuesday, November 10th.  Interview will be held virtually this year on Thursday, November 12th starting at 16:00.  Further, detailed information regarding Progress Reports and Interviews will be coming shortly.

Clothing

 As the weather gets cooler and wetter, please ensure that your child is dressed accordingly.  

Logins and Passwords

 Students will receive their logins and passwords on a cue card which will be located in the front pocket of their agendas.  Please leave them in that location so your child has quick and easy access both at school and at home.  We will first have lessons about staying safe while online before using any technology.

A message from Mme Perreault

I hope that you are all healthy and taking care of

yourselves during these exceptional times. 

I will be posting any work or messages through Hapara

and/or any blog or website used by your child’s Homeroom

Teacher  to keep all the information you receive from us on

the same portal.  You will be updated on any changes

to this, should they occur. Thank you for your

patience and understanding. 

Also, there are some French videos on the Learn at Home

website created by the government of Ontario.  You may find

these interesting and educative, so please take a look. Here

Bon courage!

School Closure-Work Update

Before the break, I sent students home with their math textbook.  Students can review calculating perimeter by finding shapes/objects in the text, measuring them and calculating their perimeter.  They can also order the perimeters and compare one perimeter to another. (We use the P=s+s+s+s formula).  They can then move on to Area which is Chapter 8 in the textbook.

Scholastic has a great site for daily reading which includes text and activities:

***If you have traveled over the March Break, even before or after, please notify us by emailing the school: philip@ocsb.ca

I will send out an update from Mme. Perreault tomorrow.

Extended School Closure

Since schools will be closed until Monday, April 6, you may be looking for some school work for your child.  Reading is an excellent way to keep up with literacy skills especially when combined with talking to your child about what they are reading.  This is a great way for us to get to our class goal of reading 100 books by the end of May.  Let's see how close we can come to it by April 6th!  You can also visit the Nelson Math website and review concepts we have already covered.  Our next strand will be Geometry starting with 2-D.  Hope everyone stays healthy.  See you in April.

Classroom Care

Our class is participating in Scholastics' Classrooms Care reading challenge.  Our goal, as a class, is to read 100 books by the end of May.  Once we reach that goal, Scholastics will donate 100 books on our behalf to a school in need.  Happy reading!

Fully Alive

A letter has been sent home regarding Unit 3 Created Sexual of Fully Alive.  We will be reading about the themes outlined in the letter in March.  Should you have any questions and/or wish to see the text that will be used, please let me know.

2020!

Welcome back after a well deserved holiday.  A reminder that students need to have their winter clothing, including snowpants, each day.  Thank you.
