A stone's throw from the weekend...

The sun was shining today for our 25th Anniversary, and we were treated to a beautiful rendition of our school song (well done, Grade 5s!), inspiring speeches by some founding members of our community and an exciting balloon drop!

Tonight, students should be reviewing for a small quiz on our Nouns unit. We have focused our attention on:

-- the four categories of nouns
-- the various rules to change singular nouns to plural nouns
-- how to indicate possession of a singular noun
-- the two ways to indicate possession of plural nouns (think of what to do for irregular nouns!)
-- the differences between common and proper nouns.

Students were encouraged to bring home the material from this unit to aid the review process. 5D were experts with the SmartBoarder in today's lesson and everyone was tuned in for success!

The greatest part of the day was the Crack the Code Challenge at the end of the day -- congratulations to all of the groups who found the crooks! :)

Just a few reminders to you for tonight:

-- Come to school in your P.E. kit and pack your uniform
-- Return your Coffee and Scholastic orders
-- Hot Lunch orders are to be placed online this year!
-- Donations for Terry Fox can be made online as well!

Good night, 5D!
