Dragon Boating! Wednesday, June 8th Update

Hello Everyone!

Congratulations on finishing three sessions of Dragon Boating! It was a great day on the water and we were lucky with the weather. Thank you to all the parents who drove and to all parents for their support of this program. Ms. D sent an email to everyone with details regarding Burnaby Canoe and Kayak’s Summer Camp Programs and their free boating day/open house events. If you didn’t get it, please email me, or see Burnaby Canoe and Kayak site for details.

Today, we did some serious reflecting on our goals, what we learned in MACC this year, and what we hope to develop about ourselves in the future. Ms. D asked everyone to write about this, as I would like to use your words on the report cards I am writing. It is important that each of you understands how you are developing, what your strengths are, and where you can improve. I look forward to reading your reflections. If you missed doing the reflection today, you can find it here, MACC Self Reflection Term Three.

It looks like we have enough drivers for our Rocky Point Park excursion, so thank you to everyone who volunteered! If you needed a driver form, I have sent one home.

For all parents who volunteered this year, you are invited to the Volunteer Tea on June 15th. You should have received a paper invitation.

Remember the Independent Project notes and bibliography portion are due Friday.

Tomorrow, thanks to the PAC funding for workshops, we are having UBC Geering Up present some activities from 10:45-12:00 on science, around the topic of Phenomenal Forces. This should be a fun, end-of-the year activity to help prepare us for learning next year in MACC.

We continued our discussions on poetry and figurative language. We are working on poetry in partner groups, doing List Poems, Univocalic Verse, Alliteration, and Palindromes. Please try one of the types tonight!

LIBRARY BOOKS ARE ALL DUE TOMORROW!

Have a great night!

Ms. D
