It's already mid-October!

Happy Fall, everyone! I can't believe we're already halfway through October! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and ate lots and lots of stuffing and turkey!

We're very busy and having lots of fun in grade 6! We've started our Math and Language Arts centres on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and we're still working on our math word problem of the day, sentence of the day, and journal writing for Morning Work.

In Science, we've been doing a lot of experiments and demonstrations about the properties of air. It's awesome to be able to do such hands-on examples with the class!

All year we'll be working on different aspects of democracy and government in Social Studies, it's very exciting with the local election happening. we're participating in Student Vote so the kids will get to cast their own vote for who they would vote for in the municipal election if they were able to!

The Souper Stars program has been great so far and in the next few weeks the kids will get to be in the kitchen working hands-on with safety and food preparation. It's going to be really interesting and hopefully we'll have a lot of fun!

Our field trip to the Ann and Sandy Cross Conservation Centre is coming up very soon and will be a wonderful time! We're all really looking forward to it! Remember to dress for the weather and pack a lunch; it's going to be a full and exciting day!

Also, our Thanksgiving Liturgy is on Friday at 1:30pm; we've been organizing it with 8T and look forward to seeing any visitors who can make it!

Have a wonderful rest-of-October and try to find the time to get outside before it gets too cold!
