Hello Grade Fives!
Today, in a correct paragraph form, I would like you to describe briefly how our Canadian government is structured (levels). Understanding the basic structure of our Canadian government system helps you understand the different levels and the role they play in our lives.
As always, I look forward to reading your responses.
Love, Mrs. French
Hello Grade Fives!
For several months now, we have discussed which behaviours demonstrate ‘good citizenship’. Today, in a correct paragraph form, I would like you to describe a ‘good Sinkutview citizen’ by providing examples. Which behaviours would we expect ‘a good Sinkutview citizen’ to practice at school?
Today, I will provide your topic sentence: A 'good Sinkutview citizen’ helps our school community in many ways.
As always, I look forward to reading your responses.

Well, our first term is well behind us and you have all been working hard on developing good learning behaviours: listening carefully to lessons and instructions, completing work carefully and completely, checking your work over for errors, preparing for quizzes, and asking for help as needed.
As we move deeper into term two, I would like you to share which learning behaviour(s) you are going to work on particularly hard. In today’s response, and in a correct paragraph form, please tell me which behaviours you have chosen.
As always, I look forward to reading your responses. I will make every effort to help you practice these learning behaviours.
Love, Mrs. French

Last week, we went to a speaker who spoke about how we can stop bullying, how to stop bullying ourselves and how to stop others from bullying. He reminded us that actions begin with a thought. We choose the actions we take. In a paragraph form, share with me three ways that you will try to stop bullying (either bullying yourself or others from bullying).
