Week 6 - Field Trips, Agendas, Dictée, Fire Drill

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Field Trips
Please see email for upcoming field trip dates.  Watch for a paper newsletter with more specific information to come home this week.

Agendas
I use agendas in my class as an important communication tool between school & home.  Please make sure to sign it every night.  I tell students that it is their responsibility to ask you to read and sign it, but in reality these young people usually need a hand in remembering.  Since we look at our agendas at least once a day, it is also a good place for parents to write reminders (exchange books, bring home water bottle, ...)

Dictée
We are working with Thanksgiving terms in French as the students will be writing in the journals about this holiday.  Here is this week's audio dictée:


This week:
Fire Drill:  Willows has been practicing what to do in the event of a fire.  We expect to have a surprise Fire Drill this week, at which time the Oak Bay Fire Department will be in attendance to time our exit.

Assembly:  On Thursday morning we are expecting to meet Gareth Rees (Willows grad and Canadian rugby legend) as well as  Natasha Watcham-Roy and Bianca Farella, members of the bronze medal winning Canadian Women's Rugby Team. 

Bonne semaine!
