We chose to start off Term 2 with an exciting new read aloud. The Wild Robot by Peter Brown is a story about survival, friendship, and overcoming difficult situations. We will soon be posting about our favourite characters and predictions we have. However, we promise not to spill the beans just in case anyone wants to read it for themselves!
We have begun our study of current events and non-fiction texts. For practice, students have been asked to analyze different news articles and how these events are impacting others and themselves. Below are the articles we read in class today. If you happen to find any articles you think are interesting or think the rest of the class should know about, please send them my way :).
Hi Everyone,
It was wonderful to meet all of you at the intake meetings last week. If I have not yet had a chance to conference with you either in person or by phone we can always reschedule at your convenience.
Some upcoming dates that you should be aware of are the following:
Nature Walk Field Trip – Oct. 10 in the morning
Young Peoples Concert – Oct. 9 in the morning
Golf Field Trip – Oct. 18th and Oct. 21st in the afternoon
Please continue to check your child’s planner so they can become more responsible when organizing themselves between home and school.
Thank you for your support!
Hi Everyone,
Here are some important reminders for the week as students have not yet received their planners.
Hi Everyone,
Welcome back to school! I hope you have all had a restful and enjoyable summer break. I can’t wait to get started and am looking forward to getting to know all of you. In the upcoming weeks, you will receive your login and password for your E-portfolio. This is a tool used to better communicate your learning with your parents. Our class syllabus and expectations will be distributed in the following days.
Happy learning!

Welcome back, Div. 3!
I hope you all had a relaxing break 🙂 I am excited for the term ahead and all of the different subject areas we are going to be exploring. Our class blogging crew will be updating our website from now on. Please check out their posts!
This book is our read aloud. It is called Posted by John David Anderson. It is an interesting book because it is about a boy in middle school.He just wants to be normal but that changes when cellphones get banned. The lesson in this story is that words aren’t just words they can be used as gifts or weapons.

Hi Div.3,
Please remember to complete your Fear Paragraph and your research for your sub-question for Science by Tuesday. You may submit it through Google Classroom or as a paper copy to me in person.
We have been exploring the impact of single use plastics. After recording our own plastic use, we are now researching our inquiry question: What is the most harmful single use plastic?
