Getting Ready for Student Led Conferences!

Students have been busy this week preparing for our Student Led Conferences on Thursday evening and Friday. We have been inserting our work into our portfolios and we will spend time reviewing for our presentations. The students and myself look forward to sharing our start to the year with you!

Spider and Bats Come to 5M!

This afternoon, the grade 5's had a great time decorating some painted gourds. Students were each given a black painted gourd to decorate for Halloween. The result was many creepy crawling spiders, and some very mischievous looking bats!

Back from the Long Weekend...

The kids had quiet start to the short week, could be they were all so tired from the turkey overload, I know I was! This is a picture of the best Daily 5 session we have had to date! There is always room for improvement, but it was great today! 

Just a reminder that there is no spelling words this week but we are starting with math fact tests this week. 

Swimming!

We had our first swimming trip of the year this week. It was my first time going, and I had a blast watching the kids in the pool, I can't wait until next time when I can join them in the pool! It seemed like it was a great time had by all. There are still a couple of people that need to pay their swimming fees as well as their student fees, if that can be done as soon as you are able, that would be great! Here are some pictures of splishing and splashing!

I'd Like to Introduce You to...Mulvey's Millionaires!

We had our first full week in grade 5 and it was great! We have started some of our units in Math, Social Studies, and Science. The students had the opportunity to begin to make our cheques in the computer lab for their 5M accounts, which we will finish this upcoming week. We ended the week with a Gym Blast and by winning the football game. It was a great week and I'm looking forward to many more!
