Here is what we will be covering in class next week:
French: Students will begin their French reading program at
home. Letters will be sent on Monday explaining in further detail.
In addition, students will work on cursive writing, as well as writing in their personal
journals and learn about vowels and consonants.
Math: We will start to learn about number sense. Students will learn
how to represent numbers in different ways: place value charts, base 10 blocks,
deconstructed form, written form etc. They should be practicing saying their
numbers in French up to 1,000 for now.
English: Students will write a short letter (10 sentences) explaining what kind of teacher they need in order to be successful this
year. Then we will start a novel study on Secret Signs.
Science: We will be discussing what a
scientist is, discovering different types of scientists that exist, and
learning about the scientific method.
Social Studies: Students are getting an
introduction to mapping skills and will learn the vocabulary that accompanies
maps. They are also learning where on a map to locate the four communities that
we will study this year: India, Peru, Ukraine and Tunisia.
Religion: M. Zacharie will begin some
introductory lessons this week. He will be having students write a prayer about
gratitude.
