Goal for Grade Six!

Good morning Grade Fives,

This is the last blog response for grade five. I want to take a moment and just let you know how much I have loved teaching you all this year! You are an energetic group of wonderful individuals and it has been a great honour to be your teacher for a year.

Now, as you look forward to summer, I would like you to take a moment to think about grade six. Please write about one learning behaviour you are going to use next year to help you have a successful grade six year.

As always, I look forward to reading your responses.

Love Mrs. French

This Summer!

Hello Grade Fives,

I would love to hear about your plans for the summer. Tell me about what you hope to do and what you are quite sure you will be doing.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Love Mrs. French

Largest Area of Growth

Dear Grade Fives,

Our year together is almost at an end, and as I look back, I see many areas that we have all grown.

For myself, I have learned some new ways to help students develop independent work skills e.g. including 'plan a full day' or 'an extra 1/2 day' work period into our banking system and the 'peel off' system. I have also learned new ways to help students think about their learning and to inform me about changes I need to make as a teacher e.g. the blog.

I would like to hear about the area you feel you have grown the most. Please explain in anyway you choose.

Thank you.

Love Mrs. French

Math Sites

Welcome to June Grade Fives!

We have used a variety of math links this year to help you 'see' math and to practice your math skills. I would like to know which site is your favourite and why.

Love Mrs. French
