Good evening parents and students!

This is a reminder for parents that students are expected to have laptops for our final UOI and that time is almost upon us! We ask that students have laptops ready for May 7th. If this is a concern please email me.

Today was a great morning at Kidsports! Those who attended had a lot of fun exploring the jungle gym, playing at the arcade, and participating in other sports!




 




 
 Believe it or not but that blur is Manisha on the zip-line!

Those who stayed behind had a fun UOI lesson with Ms. Downey, they played trivia and had tricky crosswords to complete, all about Canada's government!

For our UOI summative presentations, parents are welcome to attend at 2pm on May 3rd. Actual presentations will begin at 2:20pm however parents are welcome to arrive at 2:00pm and take a look/ask questions at the display tables. After the presentations and voting, students are allowed to leave with their parents. 

Due to the trip in the morning, we only had one lesson together today, which we spent on DRAs. I was very impressed with how focused the students were during this time!





NOTES:

A note about Spelling Bee:
The Spelling Bee is right around the corner! Students were sent home with an information sheet and their spelling list that will be used for the in class competition.


Grade 6 exhibition:

Dear Parents and Teachers of St. Jude's Academy,

We (Rishaan, Jonathan, and Lucas) have an exhibition project on animal agriculture. Have you ever thought about how much water it takes to make one hamburger? Well, the answer is 660 gallons of water. That is equal to showering for about two months straight! As part of our action we have decided to encourage people to go meatless on Mondays during the month of May. We are asking our St. Jude’s Family to join us and pledge to go meatless on Mondays, and make a positive impact on things it affects such as climate change! If you decide to help us by going meatless on Mondays, then you could save 1100 gallons of water, 45 pounds of grain, 30 square feet of forested land, ten pounds of carbon dioxide, and one animal’s life. We hope you decide to help us stop animal agriculture, and go meatless on Mondays. If you decide to go meatless on Mondays, kindly return the attached pledge form signed in your child’s agenda before April 30, 2018!

Thank you
Lucas, Jonathan, and Rishaan
Grade 6
