Today, for Monsieur Wanie's birthday, Rachel and Danielle brought in Fuzzy Peaches and Hazelnut Cake! Fortunately, Monsieur Wanie decided to share with the class! Thanks girls, and thank-you to everyone who sent their Brithday wishes.
On a class note, students discussed the "Geographie, Chapitre 5" questions in preparation to complete the assignments therein over the weekend and on Monday. As well today, students worked on their triple industry sequence assignment.
Tonight and tomorrow morning, Monsieur Wanie is looking forward to Parent-Teacher interviews. There are so many good things to report about students this year! Hopefully, students spend the long weekend safely. Oh, and get off the couch and get some fresh air!

Mercredi, la pluie... et le mauvais temps.
This morning, students in 86 and 87 worked on their triple picture sequence of industries assignment. The idea was to depict the transformation of something from primary industry through tertiary industry, from natural resource to finished product. In order to include the sequence of production, transport and sale to consumer on the classroom railroad, students had to elaborate how their sequence could be incorporated and creat traffic on the railroad.
Students also made trees and rocks in the first installment of building more scenery on the railroad.

Mardi, le vent se leve!
So, today, classes 86 and 87 spent the better part of the day working on the novel: "La Peur De Ma Vie" in order to do the test in the afternoon.
Students were handed-back their "Greatest Canadian" artwork... Wow, awesome stuff kids! Your parents and guardians will be able to check them out on interview night/day on the bulletin board outside the classroom!
On that note, the interview schedule looks pretty booked-up. Hopefully all parents and guardians were able to find a convenient time-slot. Otherwise, please call the office and leave a message for Monsieur Wanie for a special time to be booked.
Not much else on for today! Hopefully tomorrow we'll start working on the railroad! PS someone bring in some round toothpicks, we need them for tree trunks!

Lundi, le soleil!
Today, students in 86 and 87 were handed-back their "Le Galop Du Templier" test. Most students did well and the class did the corrections with Monsieur Wanie.
A little later in the day, students continued the class-read of "La Peur De Ma Vie".
And in the afternoon, students handed-in their "Geographie" notebooks and were given their mid-term progress reports.
Hopefully parents who were interested in meeting with Monsieur Wanie on Thursday evening or Friday morning were able to book an interview online or through the office.

Vendredi, un peu gris...
This morning, students in 87 had their last period to use the "Geographie" textbook before the weekend and the Monday due-date for their "Chapitre 4". Note to students, you may come in early on Monday to finish-up, Monsieur Wanie is always at work early to provide extra help for students.

Jeudi, re-soleil et beau temps!
Students did a terrific job at the Remembrance Day assembly today. Those that spoke, played music, acted-out scenes, and listened attentively, all made the presentation special.
During the remainder of the day, students talked "Geographie" with Monsieur Wanie. For students in both 86 and 87, "Chapitre 4" is due on Monday! Question numbers are: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9 or 12 (or both for bonus marks!).

Mercredi, encore le soleil!
Another bright sunny day!
And a busy one at that! Students in 86 and 87 finally had their "Geographie, Chapitre 4" discussion with Monsieur Wanie. Lots of talk of social, economic and demographic tendencies, the rise or rebirth of the small and medium sized business, big box stores and the rise of half-time jobs, business re-organization, sub-contracting and out-sourcing, employee benefits and the baby boom and bust...
