Monday, Monday

Thank you so much for your support today in our Speech Celebration. The students of 5G blew me away with their amazing delivery, confident voices and command of timing. Their hard work certainly shone through today, and I am excited for Friday!

Tonight for homework, students should complete the K section of the KWL chart in the orange Digestion booklet. The Respiratory and Digestion test will be held on Friday, February 27th. 5G has the Respiratory component nailed, and I am confident that they will succeed!

The blue Poetry booklet also came home tonight, so that students can begin reviewing for their Poetry test on Thursday, February 26th. It is imperative that students understand the meaning of various poetic devices, including smilies, metaphors, alliteration, onomatopoeia and hyperbole.

After you have read a good novel for 20 minutes your homework is complete!

Thank you again for such wonderful work today - I'm off to the swim meet tomorrow, so I'll see you on Wednesday (House Assembly day!)
