Good morning everyone!
By the end of today our work on our final inquiry unit will be complete. Doesn’t it feel good?
A few messages from SJA:
Daily Challenge – Treat your family to supper this week by winning first place in our weekly challenges! Get a $50 Uber Eats dinner delivered courtesy of St. Jude’s – winner will be announced on June 23 during morning assembly.
Choose 4 of these challenges and send Mr. Neal your videos and pictures:
1. Play checkers with a parent or sibling – send a picture whether you win or lose!
2. Make a Kleenex Box Monster! See attached picture.
3. It’s time to get lean and mean – as an airplane that is! Make your best paper airplane and see how far it goes.
4. “I can jump THIS high!” show us how high you can jump – but only on one foot!
5. Blow up a balloon and hop 10 feet with it between your legs. Bonus points if you pop it with your knees at the end.
6. Help clean the house! Get two towels (ask Mom or Dad which ones) and skate along the floor polishing it to a brilliant shine!
7. It’s time for a wheel barrow race. Get a parent or sibling to hold your legs up and you race on your hands! You need to go at least 10 feet in one direction and then back again.
Have fun everyone!

ABCs of Grade 6
Reflect on your Grade 6 year. Prepare a slideshow with your group to represent this year.
·
Use each letter of
the alphabet

Each slide gets its
own letter, e.g. Slide 1: Letter A, Slide 2: Letter B, etc
·
Each letter
represents something about this year, e.g. A is for aboriginal people who
were the first to arrive on the American continent
·
Add a picture to
each slide. Hint: visit our class blog to find pictures

Inquiry into Math
Students will work on the final unit review in preparation for their unit test on Tuesday, June 23rd.
|
Work that is not completed during class time will need to be completed as homework. Students should put more focus into reading at this time. It is an expectation that students are reading between 30 and 60 minutes per day.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out so I can clarify and assist.
