Mardi, le soleil encore!

Today was a great day!

Students in 86 and 87 handed-in their "Greatest Canadian" assignments... wow, some great artwork there kids!

During the day, students worked on the "La Peur De Ma Vie" novel. Some students are really having a hard time with it. Don't forget, Monsieur Wanie is in every day early for extra help. Anyway, the class-read will sort some troubles out...

Students worked on their "Geographie" keywords and showed Monsieur Wanie a completed assignment for a checkmark.

Near the end of the day, a Yahoo title came up about how baby-boomers are going to become "oldsters" as the article called them. Classes discussed the issues facing older drivers... Here's the youtube clip of "The Old Lady From Pasadena"... (the intro is a bit goofy but anyway...) that Monsieur Wanie described.

Lundi, le soleil brille!

Finally, Monsieur Wanie is back and everything is as it was...

Students in 87 worked for two periods on their "Greatest Canadian" assignment and some handed them in at the end of the morning.

86 had their pool period, splashy-splashy!

In the afternoon, students discussed their "Geographie" chapter work with Monsieur Wanie. Students may choose which question to hand-in tomorrow, #8, 9 or 12.

Vendredi, Monsieur Wanie reviens!

Today, Abelio came in to cover the final day of Monsieur Wanie's absence.

Students in 86 worked all day on their "Greatest Canadian" art assignments and most were handed-in at the end of the day.

Class 87 were given time to finish off the reading of "La Peur De Ma Vie" and begin working on the questions at the back of the novel.

Jeudi, Monsieur Wanie absent encore!

So, for the second day in a row, Ms A. came in to cover for Monsieur Wanie who was away...

Students continued working on the keywords for their "Chapitre 4, Geographie".

Classes continued reading "La Peur De Ma Vie" with the goal of finishing it by the end of tomorrow...

Mercredi, ou est Monsieur Wanie?

So, while Monsieur Wanie was away on a secret mission today, students were under the suprevision of Ms A.

Students worked on the latest chapter in "Geographie", took notes on the keywords and worked on the questions.

Later in the day, 86 and 87 began reading the new French novel: "La Peur De Ma Vie".

Mardi, le soleil encore!

Some more great projects! (Better late than never!)

Today was test-day for 86 and 87, students wrote their "Le Galop Du Templier" test. Hopefully everyone did well and had sufficient time to complete it in the time allowed.

Later in the day, students chose their "Greatest Canadian" for their next art assignment. 86 will be working on theirs full-time on Friday and 87 will be working on theirs on Monday...

Monsieur Wanie went over the latest "Geographie" chapter (#4) with students and clarified the questions that students will be working on... Students, check yesterday's post for a link to help you with the "SIG" question!

The next few days may be a bit unusual due to the fact that Monsieur Wanie will be away... it's the longest stretch he's been away from work in 15 years! Anyway, Ms Agrapidis will be in covering and students have some bulletproof plans to follow with some great assignments and work to do. Students, be good!

Hopefully, next week, students will have a bit of an easier time, there's been lots of pressure lately so the plan is to make some rocks, trees and scenery for the classroom railway! Should be messy and fun!

Lundi le froid en novembre!

Brrr, a chilly first of November!

Anyway, today 86 and 87 finished up with the class-read of "Le galop du templier" in preparation for the test tomorrow... and the new novel on Wednesday.

Monsieur Wanie went through the "Geographie, chapitre 4" questions with both classes, and students started on the keywords. There are a couple tough questions and some fun projects in the chapter...

Here's a hint for one of the questions!
