School Registration Forms, A New Math Game and Bean Sorting!

Hello! Happy Friday!

Important: Registration forms for the 2022-23 school year are coming home today! Please complete and return to the school no later than Friday, February 11.

Today in Math, the super fab Mme Scham was back with a new game to help us practice our foundational facts; we also had to work with strategy and hope for a bit of luck!

We started our turn by rolling two dice (we had the option of using 8-sided, 10-sided and 12-sided dice) and then choosing whether we wanted to add, subtract, multiply or divide the numbers. The goal was to move from 0 to 100 as quickly as possible, but we also had to land exactly on 100, so we needed to choose our moves carefully.

After making it to 100, the game reversed and we counted backwards to land exactly on 0. And then, we upped the ante by adding in an option for points. So fun!

Please ask me about the game and if I was able to beat my opponent!

Today in Science we completed a short classification assessment using dried beans.

We each received a small scoop of beans, and using a dichotomous key outline and a word wall, we wrote specific questions to organize the beans into groups and sub groups.


Mme took a picture of our final product and will test each of our dichotomous keys to see if she comes up with the same solution as us. If so, our keys were clear and successful!

Wishing you all a safe, warm weekend! :)

Hello! Happy Tuesday!

This morning we celebrated our Chevalier learning with our monthly assembly! One grade 7 and one grade 8 class were featured and did a great job! It's so excited to see what types of learning are in store for us in the coming years! (And, our class was featured many times in the photo slideshow! So fun!)

After the assembly, we continued our morning with Math (ask me about the new game Mme taught us!), Français and Science.

Wednesday!

Hello, learning friends! Happy Wednesday!

Today in Science we worked with our table partners to sort/classify a series of misc. objects.
We asked a single yes/no question at a time, with the goal of creating 8 subgroups, each with a set of common characteristics.

We will continue exploring how to classify different sets of objects this week.

A special message for our Art students:

In an effort to keep all the art students connected during these unique times, Mme Dupas has created a website for the Art Room and an Instagram account. The website has a Resources page that will keep students informed of coursework and include helpful links to deepen their learning. Mme Dupas has also included a Blog page with images of what the students have been doing at school to help parents feel more connected to their child’s learning. Feel free to take a look and if you have any questions you can contact Mme Dupas at chantal.dupas@sjasd.ca .

Welcome Back to Class!

Good morning friends of learning!

It was great to see so many faces in person instead of through a computer screen today! :)

Our morning together flew by as we challenged our brains with "Balance Math," took time to do partner reading, listened to CFOO presentations and finished the morning with our new favourite activity, "Spot the difference."

We are looking forward to adjusting to our new classroom layout this week and are ready to get back to learning! :)

Welcome back! Remote learning 3.0!

Hello learning friends! Happy New Year!

As much as our return to school is not what we expected, we are excited to get back to learning with our friends and classmates!

For the coming week, please note that daily agenda items will be posted in the daily announcements in Teams under "6-3 Agenda et annonces." As a class, we reviewed this, as well as other fun remote-learning items, during our first lessons this morning.

Thank you all very much for your anticipated patience and support during the coming days.

Looking forward to a great week of learning! :)
