June 22nd update

Thank you for your descriptive feedback grade seven and grade eight. Your comments that you shared with peers were so kind, genuine and helpful. I also appreciated the feedback on the "Report Card for Mrs. Thain". I value your comments and it will honestly guide my instruction next year. :)
Field trip tomorrow! If you forgot your permission slip please see me as soon as possible.  
Goal setting challenge time! Prevent the "summer slide" and read at least six books over the holidays. One book can count as 150 pages so that is more than manageable right? We have 7 pages of chart paper filled with suggestions for you in room 309! :)  Please be sure to give your family members your envelope with your book suggestions and coupon to Coles! :)
Thank you!
Mrs Thain
 

Update for the week of June 8th to the 12th :)

Grade 8 book talks have been outstanding. The only problem is...now I want to read all of your books. What a good problem to have. :)  Non-fiction recount selections due by the 11th. CASI reading assessments will be completed this week as well. Just do your best and show what you know.

Grade 7 Looking forward to seeing your creative writing presentations on June 16th. Your " Fourth Piggy" creative writing ideas have literally made me laugh out loud. What a fun way to display your word choice, voice, ideas, sentence fluency and imagination.  A great way to target your speaking and listening outcomes too. * Did I mention I am very excited to witness your presentations? ;)
Thank you and have a great day!

Mrs. Thain
