It's here!!!! The last week of school! Last week we had the Christmas concert, the group did a fantastic job with their song. It was lots fun. Thanks to all the parents who dropped of some treats. The students greatly appreciated them.
This week we will be trying to wrap up our mini geometry unit and do a revision of the speller words that we had so far. We will be having a fifty word spelling test. Don't stress about this test, this is just a way for me to evaluate whether the students are retaining the words that they have been learning. If they are not retaining most of the words, then I try a different approach to speller after Christmas.
The class has discussed having a class party on Friday. If you feel like sending in some treats for this day, it would be appreciated, however it is not obligatory to send something in. I know some parents have already sent in treats and I know how busy it is for everyone at this time of year.
I also wanted to let you all know what a great class I have. I feel very honoured to be teaching them. I often say that I feel as though they are the one's teaching me. They are an amazing group. I hope you all have a great Christmas break!
Best Holiday Wishes, Mme Gallant
P.S. I will not be posting the spelling words for this week (too many). It is a revision, you should have all of the words at home already. They are also in the back of the homework duotang. If by any chance you don't have them, write a note in your child's agenda book and I will send them home that night.
