le 27 novembre

1. Please bring your shirts to school on Thursday! If you have not made a “name” shirt, it is already late and you need to have it done by the next class. See me if you have any questions about this assignment.

2. Your vocabulary cards should be hole-punched and put on the ring that was given out on Tuesday. Keep them attached to your binder so that they are easily accessible.

3. Finish the first writing lesson in your workbook if you did not finish it in class. Both pages should be completed. You will need your textbook to help with the spelling. You can do this at IWP if you would like to work in m classroom.

4. Practice saying you French name out loud and using the French alphabet to spell it.

Drawing at home

During the second marking quarter, both fifth and sixth grade students are required to do at least two drawing assignments at home. They may bring their sketch books home to do this, or they can use any paper that is available at home. I have provided a list of assignments on the weekly drawing assignment page. I will be adding more assignments as the marking quarter progresses. Students can choose any assignment they would like. For extra credit, they may do more than the two required drawings.
