Dear Parents,
Unfortunately, due to pool repairs, we did not go swimming today.
Students instead had extended outdoor activity with co-operative games
and free time outdoors to develop socially and physically. All the students
enjoyed celebrating what feels like Spring compared to the snowstorm just 1
week ago!
We are learning to interact with each other socially in French and are
encouraged to do so at all times.
Students have been visiting the book fair all week- It will continue until
Friday morning!
Thanks to everyone for their support.
In the past two weeks we have studied geometry with 2D shapes and the
words/concepts such as:
un polygone ( ploygon) - Straight lines, closed
shape.
un quadrilatère (Quadrilateral) - a polygon
with 4 sides
We have now moved on to 3D shapes and will continue with these when we
return from March break.
Here is some vocabulary:
2D
Un carrée
Un losange (in French, un diamant is only used for sparkly
jewels, not for geometry!)
Un rectangle
Un triangle
Un trapèze
Un cercle
3 D
Un pyramide
Un prisme rectangulaire
Un prisme triangulaire
Un sphère
Un cube
In French we have studied the sound EU and two new songs which will come
home in the Cahier Maison-Ecole.
Great Job to all those who did their homework!!
Our policy is no homework over March Break, therefore no
additional work will be given!
The duo-tang will still go home as will the books to read
from as usual.
Have a great March Break!
Kind regards,
Mme Hulsman
