Salmon Life Cycle

Hello Grade Fives!


Last week you discussed renewable resources, specifically the salmon. On Friday, we go to Stellako to see the salmon spawn. In preparation, I would like you to view the following video: Life Cycle of Salmon and then listen to the Salmon Life Cycle Song.


I would then like you to write a short paragraph describing the salmon life cycle. Ensure that all sentences begin with a capital and end with a period. Please use your best guess spelling for unknown words.


I look forward to reading your paragraphs.
Love, Mrs. French

The Way You Learn

Salutations Grade Fives!

Welcome once again to our class blog! I would like you to answer three questions, in complete sentences and in as much detail as possible: 1) Which subject is easiest for you, why?
2) Which subject is hardest for you, why? 3) Do you learn best when you 'see', 'hear', or 'do' new things? You may also choose to tell me anything else that you think is important for me to know about your learning. I look forward to reading your responses. Love, Mrs. French

Change

Hello Grade Fives!

Welcome to our class blog! This year we are going to be doing a lot of journaling. Sometimes, you will journal in your Journal Notebook, and sometimes you will journal in this blog. Today, you will complete your first journal entry using our class blog.

I would like you to write about change. You may write about any change you are aware of. For example, you may choose to write about change in yourself, change in your life, or even change in the seasons.

I look forward to reading your responses.

Love, Mrs. French
