Bonjour,

Devoirs:

Please bring a box of kleenex so we can stock the cupboard for classroom use. Also, ensure that you have lined paper and bring some to school if you have run out.

Maths: Please complete good copy of number poster for Monday. That includes writing your number in all three formats (forme symbolique, forme en letters, forme décomposéé) and in a tableau de valeurs. Think about visual appeal and readability when finishing the good copy and use your corrected draft to avoid spelling errors.

Anglais: continue working on White Jade Tiger reading excerpt (chapters 1-5) and lit. circle activities (each person received a handout this week with their role for this section of the book). More time will be given on Monday and we will have our lit. circle discussions on Tuesday.

Bonjour,

Don't forget about the parent assignment (Tell me all about your child in a million words or less) which can be completed on the handout I provided or in an email (mcouture@sd61.bc.ca).

Maths: Just a reminder to think of a large number (minimum tens of millions with at least four digits) to use for your large number poster which you will be working on for the next couple of math blocks. (I will provide paper). The goal of this activity is to solidify understanding of the vocabulary we have learned relating to large numbers and to practice writing large numbers in their three forms (forme symbolique, forme décomposée et forme en lettres).

PE: Remember that you need PE strip on Mondays and Tuesdays (and Fridays). That includes a change of clothes (t-shirt and shorts/sweatpants/yoga pants) and running shoes.

A demain,

Mme Couture

Welcome to Advisory 43's new blog

Bonjour,

Just wanted to welcome you to Advisory 43's new blog where I will post updates Mon. Tues. and Thurs. on assignments and give student reminders on upcoming events at Lansdowne. Because parents may want to access the blog I will communicate in English. The goal, however, is for students to use this resource independently to ensure they are prepared for class.

Passez une bonne journée,

Mme Couture
