I hope you were able to watch the dance performances last week, as there was some budding talent in the room!  Thanks to the SAC for bringing Nicole Koebel to the school for the week of dance classes!

This week at school, we are discussing the Tropical Rainforest (La forêt tropicale).  The students will learn about the different layers of the forest canopy and which species of animals / birds / insects belong in each section.  They will also learn about adaptations of the critters that live there.

The spelling words this week are related to the rainforest. They are:
1. singe - monkey
2.forêt - forest
3. lemur - lemur
4. serpent - snake
5. toucan - toucan!

Have a great week!

The words this week are based on a theme...camping!  I hope some of the campers in the class are able to get away for the Long Weekend!


1. feu - fire
2. ours - bear
3. tente - tent

Have a great week and look forward to the long weekend.  Reminder that Friday is a half day at school.

Also, tomorrow is gymnastics at the Activity Centre,  remember to send students in tights, track pants instead of jeans.


A GREAT BIG thank you to Rob and Nicole for hosting the class at the North Face Pizza restaurant on Monday~ the pizza were delicious but most of them disappeared quickly.  Hopefully some of you got to sample the leftovers.

Check out the talent in the feet of the Grade One class!  We had the pleasure of welcoming a Metis Jig Dancer to J.E.S on Friday. 

I hope the video works - too cute!
