Hello Parents!
Today was the Track and Field
finals at The Maples! Most of the grade 5 class went to compete, and I stayed
at school with my very small class today. These students had two periods of
Gym, and spent most of the day working on their Novel Study summative! They
also had French, and then filled out their agendas when they got back to class.
The rest of the grade 5’s joined us at the end of the day, and then everyone
got ready to go home.
Just a few
important notes before I go:
1. UOI: log onto your Hatch Canada
account, and try a few new activities. Next week will be
2. Math: textbook p#398-399 “Show What You
Know” review questions. The Unit 11 test will be on Monday, May 29th!
It will be our last math unit test in grade 5!
3. Novel Study: check out www.shannensdream.ca and incorporate
this information into Action ideas. Read over the summative outline and rubric,
to make sure your group has covered everything that they need to! This
summative will be due on Tuesday, May 30th, and all groups will be
presenting!
4. Please send a plain WHITE t-shirt (not
tight) for your child to design for our Arts Night performance. These t-shirts
need to be brought to school by Wednesday, May 31st! A simple, plain
t-shirt can be purchased from Walmart for about $5, if you do not already have
one at home. If you have trouble finding one, please let me know by Monday, May
29th.
5. Spelling: Lesson #28 workbook due on
Monday, May 29th. Lesson #28 test will
be on Thursday, June 1st. Words are up on the blog!
6. We
have one more P.E. trip that the
grade 5’s will be participating in- Tree
Top Trekking- Friday, June 2nd. I have sent home the permission
forms- please make sure to read them carefully and answer them thoroughly.
These forms will be due on Thursday, June 1st (latest!)
7. The
SJA Spelling Bee was a great
success! Congratulations to Mehar, for placing second in the Grade 6
competition! He will go on to face the winners from The Maples, as well as the
winners from Sunnybrook School (a school in Toronto) on Thursday, June 1st. Any questions regarding the spelling
bee can be directed to Ms. Chang, at vchang@stjudesacademy.com
8. Due
to the amount of lost items, the school is promoting iron-on name labels! They cost $5.00
for 15 labels- I can provide the order form, if you are interested!
9. The Grade 5 class will be
contributing to the bake sale, which
has been pushed back to Arts Night! This means any NUT FREE baked goods brought
in for the bake sale, will be sold during our Arts Night exhibition.
10. Arts Night will be on Wednesday, June 7th! We will
be having a daytime rehearsal at 1pm (parents can attend), and our final performance
starting at 7:00pm (all students are expected to participate in the evening
performance).
11. The PYP Grade 3-6 Promotion
Ceremony will be on Wednesday, June 14th
at 9am.
12. The last day of school will
be on Friday, June 16th!
Report cards will be sent home this day. Only 15 days of school left!
That pretty much sums it up for today. I hope everyone has a
wonderful weekend!
Ms.
Ramnarine
