Happy Wednesday!
Tomorrow is Belonging Day, so
please encourage your child to wear their Ramsay t-shirt. Also, the Winter
Celebration starts @ 6:00pm. Our classroom will be open so that families can
compile envelopes for the Drop-In Centre. Families are encouraged to decorate the envelope and to write a
card. Envelopes and cards are provided. The grade 5/6 class is performing
at 7:45pm, so please ensure your child is at the classroom by 7:30pm at the
latest.
Today students were offered
the opportunity to persuade me about the possibility of not having (or having) homework
over the winter holidays. We reviewed a format for writing a persuasive paragraph,
and students had to plan their position which included three reasons with
supporting rationale. Students will now
apply their knowledge of complex sentence structure, and subordinate
conjunctions, to create a persuasive paragraph about homework. In case you
haven’t guessed…many are trying to persuade me that we shouldn’t have any
homework. J
