When Sophie Gets Angry-Really, Really Angry

Hello Grade Fives and Welcome Mrs. Gammon’s grade 4 and 5 class!

This week, our class presented the story When Sophie Gets Angry-Really, Really Angry!

We discussed how it is normal to get really mad sometimes but that we need to be able to handle our anger without hurting someone or ourselves.
Today, in a well-crafted paragraph, we would like you to answer the following question: How do you handle your anger when something or someone makes you very, very angry?
Mrs. French’s class, as usual, is asked to use the checklist, prior to posting. Mrs. Gammon’s class, you are welcome to use it as well.
I look forward to reading your responses. (Please see ‘Posting Your Response”)
Sincerely, Mrs. French

Today your Blog response will be posted in Mrs. Gammon’s class blog, 4dragons. Please read the message carefully before responding to the blog.

As usual, I look forward to reading your responses.

Canadian Landscape

Dear Grade Fives!
Today, in your Blog response, I would like you to write a complete   paragraph about our Canadian landscape, the highs and lows. You have completed a relief map and so I would now like you to describe the diverse landscapes that make up our country.
Remember, I am still expecting a well-crafted paragraph. To help ensure this, please use 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
