Wow is all I can say about this past week. I can honestly say it has been a long time since we've had so many successive days off. I hope that everyone's homes and driveways are passable and that no major damage was incurred.
This week really threw a wrench into my plans but, we must go on. This week coming we will continue where we left off with Quel est ton sport prefere? What is your favourite sport?and students will do a small research project (they may begin printing articles etc off this weekend in preparation). Quel sport pratiques-tu et depuis quand? What sport do you practice and since when? These are the final two questions for this unit. My plan is still to have them present their final project but that will now be held off until they switch classes in February. It has been an amazing experience working with your children these last 5 months and I am very much looking forward to teaching them Science and French for the next term. Have a great week and weekend! Katelyn Pettigrew Happy Friday/Weekend!
This week seemed to fly by and again I am blown away with how well the class has been doing with both testing and learning the new vocabulary and phrases for our new unit. This week we will finish our questions about seasonal sports: Quel sport pratiques-tu en automne, et au printemps? What sport do you practice in fall and spring? (we didn't get to them this week!) and we will also cover Quel est ton sport prefere? What is your favourite sport? and Quel sport pratique tu et depuis quand? What sport to you practice and since when? This week we will also be starting research on a favourite sport with a presentation the following week. I may request they bring in items from home for the presentation (equipment, jersey etc.) More information will follow closer to presentation date :) Also a reminder there will not be school for students January 28th as it is a Professional development day for teachers. Have a great weekend and as always if you have questions or concerns please don't hesitate to contact me at the school. Katelyn Pettigrew Welcome back!
It is so hard to believe that there are only 3 weeks left of this intensive block. Time sure has flown. I am excited for all that students will learn these coming weeks and also to teach them science and French next block! This week we will be starting our new unit Les sports. The questions we will cover include: Est-ce que tu regarde la tele dans tes temps libres? Do you watch T.V. in your free time? Quel sport practiques-tu dans temps libres? What sport do you play in your spare time? Quel sport pratiques-tu en ete?En hiver? en automne? au printemps? What sport do you play in summer, winter, fall, spring? (We may not touch on all 4 of these this week!) In addition to progressing through our new unit I will be conducting oral language assessments and reading assessments for the Les vetements unit this week and students will begin their end of term independent writing piece. It is also with great pleasure I announce that the position in our class for Wednesday's that was empty after Mme. Gunter left has been filled by Mme. Brittany Beyea. I am very much looking forward to having her in our class that day. Have a great week and don't hesitate to contact me should something come up. Katelyn Pettigrew |
