Welcome, Week 5!

Hello families! Happy Monday!
I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to tackle Week 5 of our home-learning adventure!

Today is a very HAPPY day in my house as it is my son Leo's 6th Birthday! He informed me first thing this morning that since it is his birthday, and since he cannot have a friend party, he is allowed to do whatever he wants today, including eating candy for breakfast. So, it promises to be an energetic - and likely very noisy - day chez the Careens! :)

Reminder: If you have not yet signed up for a "locker clean-out" slot, please sign in to conference manager to do so. Information about this was sent home from the school office last week. While you are at the school, you will notice that I have left a few additional items (Math notebook, Science duotang, a bag of yummy treats!, etc.) in front of your lockers. These are not necessary for our upcoming lessons; they are just some of the supplies we had been using in class prior to schools being closed and I thought I would leave them for you to take home while you were collecting your other school items. Please send me an email if you have any questions.

New this week: We are going to give a Teams meeting a try! A meeting has been set for Wednesday at 10:00. Please see the tutorials now posted in Showbie for how to set-up Teams and let me know if you have any questions. Please RSVP to the meeting, and if you cannot make it, please drop me a quick note to let me know why (ex: not a good time, etc) so that I can take all feedback into consideration moving forward.

Our first meeting will be more 'social' in nature so that we can all become familiar with the platform before possibly moving ahead with class lessons or meetings in smaller groups. I am also happy to start setting up one-on-one check-ins (for academic support, or simply to chat) if there is interest. Please email me and let me know if this is something you would like to schedule and we'll work together to find a time to meet!

Continuing this week: Showbie - open discussions.

Monday - TODAY! Pop in to say hello and to share about your weekend between 10:30 - 11:00.

Tuesday - Open Math discussion: 10:30 - 11:00

Thursday - Open Français discussion:  10:30 - 11:00

I think that's it for now.

Let's get this week started! :)

Fait de la semaine: La plupart des gens passent environ cinq années de leur vie à manger.

**A special announcement from Mme Champagne: 

Hi 6-4! I'll be opening up Class Discussion in Showbie today at 11:30 to discuss Mars Patel! 
Pop in and share your thoughts! 

**A special announcement from Mme Chernick: 

Bonjour mes chers élèves,

À partir de maintenant jusqu'à la fin de l'année scolaire, ScHum va être mélangé avec d'autres sujets comme le français et l'anglais, donc je ne publierai plus de devoir sur Showbie. Au lieu de cela, je vais collaborer avec Mme Champagne et Mme Careen pour insérer certains concepts de l'histoire canadienne dans vos autres sujets. Je suis toujours là pour vous si vous avez besoin de quelque chose. Je vais laisser notre classe Showbie ouverte. N'hésitez pas à m'envoyer un message quand vous le souhaitez.

{ From now until the end of the school year, ScHum is going to be mixed in with other subjects like French and English so I will not be posting any more assignments on Showbie. Instead I will be collaborating with Mme. Champagne and Mme. Careen to squeeze some Canadian History concepts into your other subjects. I am still always here for you if you need anything. I will leave our Showbie class open. Feel free to message me whenever you'd like. }

 ❤Mme Chernick

MATHÉ
Concepts: Polygones, Périmètre et l'Aire!

Nous allons continuer avec le périmètre et l'aire des quadrilatères aujourd'hui.
Visiter le dossier "Mathématiques - Concepts" en Showbie pour la leçon.
Vous avez besoin les feuilles ci-dessous.

{ Today we are continuing with the perimeter and area of quadrilaterals. Visit Showbie:"Mathématiques - Concepts" for the lesson materials. You'll need the sheets posted below. }

Résolution de problème - Un nouveau défi!

Chercher vos feutres Expo et préparer pour une nouvelle question!
Travailler la question et afficher une photo en Showbie pour partager votre progrès. Les indices vont affichées pendant la semaine. Une réponse finale n'est pas nécéssaire; c'est plutôt le processus qui est important. 
Amusez-vous!

{Get your Expo markers ready for a new "write on your window / whiteboard / mirror / other-erasable-surface question! Work on the question throughout the week and post a picture in Showbie to show your progress. Hints will be posted as the week goes on. Note: A final "correct" answer isn't the goal; the focus is on the process and exploring many different options. Have fun!}

La somme : 51
Combien y-a-t-il de nombres à 6 chiffres dont la somme des chiffres égalisent 51?

Sum of 51

There is A LOT of information posted, so please take time to read through it before starting. The goal is to have your text typed and submitted by the end of the week, if possible, so we can begin conferencing, as needed, the following week. }
