Fashion shows- Défile de mode grade 8 update

What a fun way to learn vocabulary, research French music, collaborate and be creative!

Can't wait to see all of these assignments come to life!

Grade 7 update... Avoir

Singing the verb Avoir to a Justin Beiber tune? Yes your son or daughter can do exactly that in French class!  Ask them about their assignment. 

Happy new year! Bonne année !

Grade 7's are working on their silhouette projects which pay tribute to a French artform, named after Etienne de Silhouette. 

Grade 8's are working on creating fashion shows, paying tribute to fashion designers from France while speaking in French. 

Have a peaceful and joyous break this winter holiday. I plan to bake, visit with family and friends and read.

 See you next year!  Bonne année !

Cross country 2015

Thank you for a great season, good weather and supportive coaching team!  Until next year...

Cross country meet 2015

What a pleasure it is to use our school track and facility. In my opinion, the best in St. James school division. Great school spirit from all participating schools. Join us at our next meet on September 28. Our coaching staff have worked this September to get our students ready. Go sharks go!!

Volunteering is good for your soul

Volunteering can be a great way to develop skills, learn more about career options, make friends, garner new professional contacts, get exercise, spend time outdoors/with animals/with friends, or even just shake up your routine.

Look at me here at the Greek pavilion here in Winnipeg this summer @Folklorama.   I had the pleasure of volunteering and had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Mayor, #Brian Bowman, who went to the same high school as me. 

Cool!   

Rest up in August!  I look forward to seeing you all in September.

Grade 7 plays

Grade 7's have chosen their scripts for our next unit. They will be using their dramatic abilities to perform characters in the plays which circle around themes of the Le Café. Some students have further challenged themselves performing Les trois petite cochons which contains more characters.  All groups will have choice on their presentation style.  Puppets ( marionettes),  animation, istop motion or live performance are a few suggestions. I look forward to supporting their creativity. 

Grade 8's cooking shows

Grade 8's are working on their projects for our very exciting Cooking Unit.   They are learning new vocabulary, expressions and sentence structures while making their scripts for their shows. It is very exciting to hear their enthusiasm for all the various dishes they will be preparing. 

Ask your child about their recipe. Some groups have begun filming. Bon appetite!!
