Christmas Concert is coming...

I apologize for not blogging regularly this fall term. I intend to write here more often in the coming months.

Report cards are on their way home and we look forward to meeting with parents (and students)about their progress this fall term. Please contact me, or make an appointment for a conference, if you have any questions or concerns about your child's progress in the Art of Language.
In Grade Six Language,starting next week, we will be spending several periods each week preparing for our St. Joe's Christmas Concert on December 10th. The play Ms. Christie and I have chosen is called "All I Want for Christmas" and it looks to be a fun one with lots of colourful characters and great music. Of course our TR-Six class are the stars with the responsibility and pleasure of 'becoming' the characters and acting out the story.
We ask your assistance in finding costumes for the 'toy' characters we will have.
In the next few days I'll be sending a note asking for your helping with our costumes and props.
Thanks for your help!
Always remember that you are welcome to contact me by email at terry.roth@holyspirit.ab.ca or by phone at school: 403-345-3373, or at home at 403-345-4543.

Soyons bête

Let's be animals,

With the close of our My Elementary School unit in French we will be moving on to our Animal Unit. Students will learn different animals in French as well as their physical characteristics, habitats and more. We will be working towards a project where students become Zoologists and discover a new animal. They will create an animal and present different aspects about it using the Smartboard.

Also on December 4, 2009 we will be having a special guest with us who is going to show us how to make TAFFY! This goes with the Québecois tradition of Maple Syrup making and une tire sur la neige! For more information about Maple Syrup and une tire sur la neige recipe please go to this website: http://www.whats4eats.com/desserts/tire-sur-la-neige-recipe

Merci à tous,

Monsieur Pivert
