Term Two Learning Behaviours!

Hello Grade Fives!

Our first term is over and you have all been working hard to develop good learning behaviours: listening carefully to lessons and instructions, completing work carefully and completely, checking your work over for errors, preparing for quizzes, and asking for help as needed. Learning behaviours are not about marks, they are things you do, every single day, to help you become a stronger student. 

As we move into term two, I would like you to share which learning behaviour(s) you are going to work on particularly hard. In today's response, and in a correct paragraph, please tell me which behaviours you have chosen. If needed, please listen (text-to-speech) to your comment prior to posting it to me.

As always, I look forward to reading your responses. I am very interested in what you are planning to do this term. I will make every effort to help you practice these learning behaviours.

Love, Mrs. French

Your Christmas Holiday

Dear Grade Fives!

Today, in your Blog response, I would like you to write a complete paragraph about what you would like to do over your Christmas holidays. In just four short weeks, you will have two weeks to enjoy some well-earned time off.

Remember, even though this is a personal topic, I am still expecting a well-crafted paragraph. To help ensure this, please use spell-check and the checklist very carefully. It is intended to make it easier for you to complete a writing assignment successfully. Take advantage of it.  

As usual, I look forward to reading your responses.

Love, Mrs. French

Natural Resources

Dear Grade Fives! 

Today, in your Blog response, I would like you to write a complete  paragraph about natural resources in Canada. I would like you to respond to the question: What are natural resources and what are some examples found in Canada?

Remember to write your post on your word document first, check it with your  digital checklist, and then copy to the blog.

As always, I look forward to reading your responses

Love, Mrs. French

Dear Grade Fives!

Today you will not write a Blog response, instead, you will learn more about Remembrance Day. I would like you to visit the following sites. Read through different sections, articles. Remember, if you find the text a bit too challenging, you may use the text-to-speech program. Just remember to do one or two paragraphs at a time. The program has a limit on how many words it is able to read.
