Almost Done!

Almost Done!

Wow! I can hardly believe we are only two weeks away from the end of our school year together. It seems like only yesterday that we first met each other. When I think back to our time together, I will always remember all of the good laughs we had in class, the Canada 150 concert, our field trip to Britannia Mine, and all of that snow that fell. It was a cold year for sure! I am so very thankful for all of the hard work you put into your learning, your perseverance and effort to make yourselves better people. I hope it is something that you will keep on doing next year and for the rest of your lives. I also hope that you made new friends this year, got to know someone you didn’t before, joined a club or sport, were a good role model to your little buddy, and enjoyed your time in our class.

This summer, I am looking forward to being with my family and spending time in the great outdoors. If the weather cooperates, I will be at the park, by the pool, bike riding and hiking in the woods. Of course, I will be celebrating Canada’s 150th birthday somewhere in the city, maybe even downtown. My good friend and her husband from Montreal will be here in town for a visit. I haven’t seen her in 13 years so there is a lot for us to catch up on!

Now, it’s your turn. Reflecting back on the year, what stands out to you and what will you take away from this year? What are you most proud of? What did you accomplish? Did you achieve the goals you set for yourself? How have you improved? And what are your plans for the summer?

  1. This summer I think that I will be doing lots of swimming. I also think that I will be playing with my dog CoCo. The school year has been really fun I made new friends and I have put in lots of effort into my work. I think that I really improved in my work this year. Something I think I did well this year was completing most of my goals. This school year has been an amazing year

    2. Where are you going swimming? I want to play with Coco and that is an awesome name for your dog! What did you improve on? Thank you for helping on the ipad and being a great partner. I will miss a lot in the summer.
      -MAIA!!!

  2. I think the trip to Brittania Mines was my most favourite time of the year I will always remember. It was the first time I have ever explored a cave! It was also the first time I saw dynamite and saw a drill working! I am most proud of the time I wrote my principal speech and presented it. The way I used transition words and conjunctions was the best work I have ever done on a speech! I accomplished many things this year, but the things I accomplished that stands out the most was my speech, my social studies project, all my tests and quizzes, and my improvement on all the things I did this year. I did accomplish my goal because I did improve on a lot of things I did this year. I have improved by trying my best, persevere, and not procrastinate. For the summer, I take camps for most of the summer, but I also plan to go fishing with my dad and sister, going to somewhere fun with my family, and celebrate my birthday.

  3. This year enjoyed going to the Burnaby Art Gallery, I liked looking at the art on the wall and I enjoy the art project we did with the class. I enjoyed the school year . I liked the snow and building snowmen. I enjoyed the school bus ride to Britannia mines. This summer maybe I well go swimming and play in the park.

  5. What stands out to me and what I will take away from this year is perseverance and effort that all of us tried to do our best. Perseverance and effort is the key to success and what I will always remember to do in life.
    What I’m most proud of this year is the improvement I had in spelling and sentence structure. My sentence structure was very different from last year. What I accomplished this year was better at making speeches and making them longer as I did last year. Which goals I achieved that I set was trying to be more talkative and talk louder since I normally talk very quiet. What have I improved on is learning to be less shy and be more comfortable to speak in front of a lot of people. My plans this summer is to be outside a lot since it’s going to be very sunny and warm this year and spend time with family.

  6. Kamsi:I think on scale of t 1 to 10 I have improved by 9.5
    I think I accomplished completing hard tasks by solving a subject problem when I thought it was going to be hard. I achieved some of the goals I set for myself like having friends improving on subject that I was not good at.

  8. I am most proud of going to Britannia mines and learning everything that happened in 1970 and they also had no electricity so they had to work in pitch black so it was really dark and they had to work in there. The mine was a copper mine and they dug out mostly all of the copper in the mine.
    They used dynamite to blow up the stone because the stone was really strong and when they blew it up the can just mine the ore. In the mine it was really cold and there was other different kind of ore such as gold but the gold was really rare to find. Britannia mines was a great trip but it was a far drive but it was really fun.

  10. I’m going to Kelowna with my family and we’re going camping and we’re also going somewhere to a big park for dogs and I’m bring my dog”Daisy” and then my mom is going to pick cherries with me and my sister but my dad is only going to carry the cherry bucket.

  11. I think I’m going to the Philipines to see my cousins,uncles and aunties.I think I improved on my handwriting and my math.I really can’t wait for going to the beach or spend time with my family.

  12. What stands out for me was I enjoyed this year because I made new friends and the field trips we went to with other classes. My family mite go to Edmomton

  13. I remember the time that I went to the ecology center thing. It was a lot of walking! I hated walking up the stairs 🙁 . I remember doing the walkathon it was so much walking. I got a blister on my foot then it popped on the seventh km . It hurts like blood coming out my foot. OW! I am proud of doing harder work in this school year. I accomplished doing art, I hated it because it took 100 0000 years.

  14. When the school year ends I don’t really know what to do for summer. I mostly think I’m going to stay indoors since, I’m not used to going out of the house. I think my grandparents are going here over the summer but I don’t really know since thy need to get their visa’s approved and other stuff.
    This year is really fun for me since I experienced snow and I made new friends. I don’t really know what I accomplished this year besides getting better at drawing people and backgrounds. I didn’t really set goals for myself since I usually forget my goals. I’m most proud of how far I’ve gone by making friends, getting better at drawing and having a good year in Cascade Heights.

  15. The thing I’m most proud of this year is being successful with being a good person and making a lot of friends. What I accomplish was getting better at my drawing and my art skills. I did accomplish one of my goals and it was getting better at my math and other stuff.

  16. From this what stands out to me the most is how much I’ve improved. I can reflect back on the starting of the year where we were learning how to put the juiciest words together and how to put a good opening sentence and a closing sentence. And now I look at what I did in the beginning of the school year and right now and I can see how much I’ve improved. I’m most proud of how I could make new friends and that I never knew! Also I learned how to preserve to have a growth mindset and to do something way harder than ever. I accomplished to make my writing have more juicier words and making my sentences flow more better. What stands out to me the most is how much Mr. Frazer and Mrs. Mann have helped me through out this year. they have helped me on my math language arts and more! I really think they are one of the best teachers. My plans for summer are going to California playing Roblox and Minecraft. Its going to be awesome!!!!!!!!

  17. This summer im in the middle of july im going Disney land but before that my sister birth day is coming up her party is on Canada day the day before her party my dads friend has a Honda crf50 dirt bike but no one drives it so hes giving it to me in august my uncles getting married so im going to wedding my cusoin from London that’s what im doing for the summer

  18. what reflect to me is how much I improve in my science because that was not my strongpoint it would help myself challenging myself and persevere. Art was what I wasn’t good at so tried ,but I tried and tried, but I never was good at art so I was a little disappointed so I realised I have a fixed mindset which I didn’t want to happen. So I decided to just try my best is what matters. I’m am most proud of is how much my math growed from September to June.

  19. For me I accomplished getting faster and running longer in track also getting 3rd place in every 100 meatier race. Also I will be going camping for my little cosines birthday.

I think that I improved a lot this year, my favourite field trip this year was Britannia mines. I reached my goal which was to have lots of A’s on my tests, this year was great!

  21. I had a wonderful time this year. All the fun we all had together was amazing. I had fun at skating but I had few falls ,also we went to Britannia
    Mines , Burnaby Art Gallery and City Hall .I am most proud of my improvements because I think I tried and improved a lot from last year.

  22. I will keep working in the summer so I can get better in grade 5 and I will go on vacation in the summer .I think I had reach my goals and perseverance to try my best .I will improve my writing ,I hope next year I will get better at it .That’s one of my goal I will be doing next year.

      -MAIA!!!

  23. I am vary proud of how I studied because it really got me somewhere like a perfect score on my French test, an A in science, and a great score on my math test. One of the things that really standed out for me was the swimming field trip we went on because I was sice on the first one, the second one was cancelled, and the one I went on was really fun and awesome! one of the lessons I learned was don’t go out of your way to hurt someone elas and you have a choice to be kind or to be mean. In the summer I’m going to go too my cousin’s wedding and going to summer school.

  24. I will try to persevere next year. I also will enjoy my time with my family. This summer I will be going to New York, Montreal, Quebec, and Boston!
