Hello, everyone!
What a wonderful Wednesday!
We got the day started off just right with our I Love to Read assembly in the gym. :)
We played a word game, listened to the teachers read La tignasse de Max and had a chance to drop everything and read!
A Wednesday morning doesn't get much better than that! :)

Agenda
It's I Love to Read Month! See HERE for all sorts of great I-Love-to-Read-Month Info!
1. Science Classification project - Overdue
2. Yoga - (tomorrow) Thursday morning at 8:15 in the gym.
3. Pizza Lunch is tomorrow (Thursday)! A reminder that the Casse-croute will be closed.
4. Last "Limonade pour la lecture" - (tomorrow) Thursday
5. Evaluation Calcul - (tomorrow) Thursday
6. We have now started the research and planning part of our biography concours speeches. Students will have time in class to research, but are encouraged to do some reading about their chosen person on their own in order to maximize their work time in class. World Book and Biography.com are two great sites to use as a starting point. The five main categories of research are:
Enfance (Childhood), Obstacles, Inspiration, Actions, Impact.
Students should focus on identifying main ideas and writing the information they've gained in French; writing research points in English only to translate them into French is twice the work. The goal is not to write an entire speech in English and then rewrite it - we will be focusing on generating our research points in French so that we can plan and organize our speeches directly from the work we've already done.
