Thursdays are Ms. Manzini's day in the classroom.
- We are working hard to finish up projects in Social Studies and Health and Careers that were started by Ms. Carrie. This week has been dedicated to this endeavor and tomorrow the Squamish Brochure and Safety posters will be finished.
- We will also be starting our Remembrance Day posters which students will have time to complete on Monday.
- Starting next week, I would like students have gym strip. (non marking soled runners, a change of T-shirt and shorts, leggings or track pants).
- We are starting a unit on Government, students' homework is to find out the names of the candidates running for municipal council and mayor. (see worksheet)
- Tomorrow, students will continue their municipal candidate study and then we will vote with Mrs. Parsloe's on our choices for Squamish town council. We will follow up with further discussions and a field trip to municipal hall (date to be released at a later date).
- Students are enjoying the Badminton unit and their skills have greatly improved.
- Tomorrow after recess, we will meet with our buddy class and do a dice activity.
- Students have been working hard on their Squamish brochure project. They have been learning how to research on the laptops and Ipads. This task has led to discussions about safe use of technology, good use of time, how to find quality information and how to choose the key points out of the text.
