Vendredi sous la pluie, le soleil et le froid!

Finally a day without a music thingy or a musical rehearsal! Yay!

So this morning, students in 86 and 87 had a chance to discuss the "Histoire Chapitre 7" questions. Take note of the WEDNESDAY due-date! A reminder that question 6 of ATC is asking you to write a newspaper article (include a picture!) about the gold rush in the Klondike. Try to make it look like an old ragged 1860s newspaper! Use tea to tint it or find some antique looking paper to write on! Make it cool!

Monday is the due-date for the "Geographie Projet Final"! Monsieur Wanie is looking forward to seeing some great presentations!

A special note to those students who are not swimming during pool class on a regular basis... GET IN THE WATER! Swimming is fun and good for you!

Bon weekend tout le monde! 

PS Mardi c'est la "Journée en Français"! 

Jeudi, le soleil avant la pluie!

Today, students were given an "over the weekend" extension on their "Géographie Projet Final" assignments. There have been so many interruptions to daily class life this week that Monsieur Wanie felt it was right to give students a break... However, the expectation is that what gets handed-in on Monday, should be way-cool-awesome!

This afternoon the students that were left in class worked on their "Géo". Most students are doing well and are showing some good effort! A few students went to the library to print-up assignment maps and yet others studied family pictures... A decent hard-working afternoon!

Random Hibiscus in the sun.

Mercredi... la mi-semaine, le soleil!

So, today was once again a bit of a scattering of students!

This morning students had a study period to work on the "La voiture" folders. Most took the opportunity to get ahead, some chose the chatty-pants route...

Students in 86 and 87 were reminded that this Friday is not only the (firm) due date for the "Géographie Projet Final" but also the last chance to put their major term artwork (ie the poster and the mobile) on display and get them graded!

In the afternoon, all students participated in the "Black History Month" assembly. Good times! And hosted by a former Winona student to boot! 

Demain, c'est jeudi!

Mardi, le soleil brille mais il fait froid!

Today, students from 86 and 87 received their new French "L'automobile, la voiture, l'auto" folders. Everyone had a chance to get started.

Some late "Histoire" assignments came trickling in with a few "Pictionnaire" projects... students, get your assignments in on time!

This afternoon, students had an opportunity to work on "Histoire Chapitre 7" - the Colonization of the West and the Gold Rush. They found definitions for the chapter keywords, and did a 15-point fact-finding exercise. 

It's been a bit of a revolving door lately in class due to all of the music and musical goings-on! Lots of students were out of class... makes it a bit difficult for everyone to focus and get things done! Reports are soon students! So make sure you stay on top of things!

Lundi et il fait froid!

Students in 86 and 87 had two assignments to hand in today, the "Pictionnaire" and the "Histoire Chapitre 6" questions. Most students had either one or the other completed and took class time to work on the missing assignment. 

This week, students will be working on the "Géographie Projet Final". Progress on the assignment must be evident in class to obtain full marks! Students, bring your material to class!

Tomorrow students will be receiving "Chapitre 5: L'automobile" of their French grammar units!

There is a lot of fun stuff to look forward to this week!

C'est vendredi, il fait soleil, c'est presque le weekend!

Students in 86 and 87 had the choice this morning of working on their "Pictionnaires" or on the "Histoire" assignment due on Monday. 

Most students worked diligently knowing that if they took all the notes from the white-boards and added answers from ATC #s 1 and 2, they would be in the market for a "B". To get an "A", students need to include information from the "hint pages" Monsieur Wanie indicated yesterday.    

Students need to remember to bring supplies for the "Géographie Projet Final" to class on Monday in order to show progress in their assignment!

Bonne fin de semaine tout le monde!

Jeudi, le vrai jeudi!

So, back to your normally scheduled Winona'sMonsieurWanie blog...

Today, students in 86 once again split into the groups they were working with for the "Histoire" assignment. Last period today is their time to present answers.

87 had two periods yesterday to work in groups and presented their answers period 5 today. Good job!

BOTH classes have a Monday due-date for "Histoire Chapitre 6"!

All students must remember to bring "Géographie Projet Final" elements to class to work on!
