Broadway Show June 1st: Bring in all props needed for Wednesday

Field Trip Forms: Business Luncheon & McMichael Art Gallery please return forms & funds 

EQAO: An open-mind, a positive attitude and continuing to be contributing members in their own learning is needed from all students. Get plenty of rest tonight, eat a hardy breakfast and bring a refillable bottle of water. For students who prefer using their own materials, it would be helpful to have extra pencils, an eraser, a ruler and a calculator. I have materials in class for students to use as needed.

VISUAL ARTS: students have selected an artist to research (short bio). Begin to collect information using the guide in Google Classroom

SOCIAL STUDIES: continue research in Global Issues Wiki organize inquiry questions under PEEPS category.

The second week of May was exciting and brought many learning opportunities from Track and Field to Silverbirch and prepping for EQAO.  Have a fantastic weekend be safe and enjoy time with family and friends.

RAGTIME:  

1.  Bring in Props

2.  Brainstorm ideas for tableau

3.  Start to write the introduction for our musical production.  (I have created a document and sent out an invitation. (the intro should include ideas from the play, the time period and creating justice for all)

Parent(s)/Guardian(s): Please review Island School overnight camp forms with your child and return by the assigned due date.

Parent(s)/Guardian(s): We have started with EQAO preparations in our classes, and the pace is slightly different (slower) than it has been leading up to Business Day.  Please note that the students are taking part in the review process as it is a summary of learning of our Grade 6 program. Sample tasks from EQAO review booklets have been used and completed by students since the beginning of the school year. There are no moving targets of achievement, no tricks or surprises. An open-mind, a positive attitude and continuing to be contributing members in their own learning is needed from all students.
