The second week of school, but the first full week.  Who thinks they are up for this?  I know I sure am!  This week brings the beginning of the soccer year.  I am sure that there will be lots of students in my class that will want to play.  Mr. Flynn will have more information to follow.  Monday we will be completely in french except for after physical education where we have to finish our personal safety unit.  This will mark the end of the "housework" that I have to do in english and we will be rolling full steam ahead in french now.  You will see the first book of the year, "Mon grand frère" and I hope you enjoy the week of activities that I have planned for that.  We will be starting our first paragraph in french.  A review, of what we did last year, all on your family! Friday will be our fire drill, lock down, bus safety day.  Please come prepared and remember all the important rules during these drills.  We want to be very prepared for these if they ever happen. Enjoy your week Grade 5.  I look forward to spending another week with such a great group of young men and women!
