Initiative!!!

Hello everyone,

We are slowly approaching the weekend, so I would like for you all to keep up with the good work. Classroom participation amongst both grade 5 and grade 6 students have dramatically increased, and I am proud of that fact. Today we started of the day with math and reviewing “variables and expressions”. Most of our grade 5 and 6 students seem to understanding the unit well, for those students requiring extra help, please ask for assistance while you are at school. Always remember that I am here to help all of you excel in your learning.

As the day progressed, some of the other material that we learned included reviewing the governmental system for grade 5s and learning about Jacques Cartier for grade 6s. We spent a little bit of time covering “inferential questioning”, and I have observed improvements in your understanding of this section. Altogether, keep up the good work and remember to lead by example. .
