November 23

Dear Families,

How exciting the new snow is for all of the children! It is getting colder and the larger amounts of snowfall will arrive. We will be learning winter vocabulary soon and I am sure there will be much opportunity to practice!

There are several new students that are apart of our elementary student body. This is wonderful and yet can present some learning discrepancies. If your child is struggling with french, I will invite them to join "french club". This takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at noon (unless I am on supervision duty). This is a time when we can review material, practice speaking and get to the written work that may need more attention. To date, I have been working with grades 1-3 on Tuesdays and 4-6 on Thursdays.

Please do not hesitate to contact me regarding your child's french experience.

:)

Happy Sunday everyone! I trust that each of you were blessed today as God's name was glorified!

Last week our classes worked on Remembrance Day vocabulary and dialogues. The students are such an inspiration to me as they courageously and eagerly speak french with me and their friends in class. I am perpetually amazed at the ease with which the students acquire the language.

We have a split week coming up with Remembrance Day falling on Wednesday. Grades 5 and 6 will be reciting a poem at our Remembrance Day Assembly entitled: "Brave Soldats". Our student council is doing a great job organizing this gathering and I for one, am greatly looking forward to it.

I encourage you to make the effort to find a Memorial ceremony to attend with your kids on the 11th.

As always, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or comments.

Lori :)
