Grade 6

Week of Dec. 7 – 11

Dear Grade 6 Families,

The children did a wonderful job filming their parts for the Christmas concert Twas the Night Avant Noël.

I am truly impressed with their artistic abilities as they completed their assignment on Salvation History. The detail that they put into their work demonstrated great love.

Their drawing of the advent candles to display in the library showed such beauty in the simplicity of their work.

This week the students got to choose a Country of their choice to research. See Google classroom for criteria.

ONGOING:

  1. Read 30 minutes both quietly and aloud (fiction and non-fiction books)

MATHS:

  1. Complete pg. 98 Questions # 9 and #12: Decimals – due Monday

SOCIALS:
