Happy First Full Week of Middle School!

Hello families! Week One, Done! Amazing!

This morning in Math we worked on telling time and practiced common time-telling expressions in French. We noticed that many expressions have a direct link to fractions, which we will continue exploring in class next week.

In Français, we watched a "Vraiment Top" video about ways to upcycle common household items to help us organize our desk. (To watch the video, click HERE). After watching the video twice, we were asked to choose our favourite upcycled idea, and decide whether we would give it a try at home or not and explain why.

Doing a small group share about our favourite upcycled organization trick before writing our answer in our Français cahier.

We ended the morning with a fun estimation Science demo using packing peanuts. Mme Careen tried to be tricky, but a couple of students were able to figure out the 'secret' fairly quickly and excitedly shared it with the whole class! We certainly have some super-science sleuths in our midst!

Wishing you all a great, sunshiney weekend! :)
