A message from Student Services (Mme Plante)

Dear DTS students,

Wow, this is quite a change! I would love to hear from you. I want to know how you are doing. Whether it’s to give me a quick update or to have a conversation, I want you to know, I am here to support you. We can communicate by email.  This is for all students; this is a safe space where you can talk and express yourself. I will do my best to support you in any way I can. maplante@cbe.ab.ca

Social Studies:

Today, I will make the answer sheet for the cross-word available on D2L. Next week, you'll be working on the research project I explained on the last day of school. The project is in D2L, under Content - E.S. Athènes antiques - La brochure. Make sure you look at the rubrics for the project. You can make a paper version or an e-version. If you make a paper version you can scan it or take a picture of it to share is with Mme Vicky and I. 

FLA: 

As Madame Turcotte wrote, your ''brochure'' project for Ancient Athens will also be evaluated in French. I will focus on the writing part of it: syntax, vocabulary, spelling, use of grammar rules...
The rubric I will use is available under Content - ES Athènes antiques - La brochure.

Remember to also share this project at one of my addresses: vipoliquin@cbe.ab.ca or vipoliquin@educbe.ca.

If you have any questions you can send me an e-mail, create a post on D2L or talk to me during the Google Meet times we will have together.  My Google meet time are Monday and Wednesday from 10 am to 10:30.  The code to join is: mmevickygr6.

Math

You will have an assessment on the unit of Angles (geometric) that will be marked on the report card (average 35 questions).  Please click here to start the assessment Angles. You have all week to do it and it have to be submit before Friday April 10th at 9:00 am.  It will automatically save on my google account.  Your answers will be saved even if you are not done the assignment.  So, you can do it over multiple days.  When you press submit, you can't go back to update your answers so please make sure you answer all questions before submitting.

We will start our unit of Fractions this week.  So please, read page 163 to understand "Fractions impropres" and "nombres fractionnaires".  You can do the exercises (homework) on page 164 # 1-2-4.   Homework will be marked next Friday.

Monday, March 30th

Bonjour 6e,

I hope everyone had a nice Spring break... As you know, we (teachers) are starting to get organize with D2L for our online learning. Mme Vicky and I will be collaboration and will share information with you on the same D2L page. So, most assignments will be evaluated in FLA and Social Studies.

This week will be use as a review, it's been two weeks since we talked about L'Athènes antique. I posted this afternoon in content the PowerPoints and notes (+ a review table) from earlier in March. I also posted a review Mots Croisés that you can do. I will post the answers Friday, so you can correct yourself.

Next week, we will give you some more information on the assignment you were suppose to do the week before Spring break. It will be pretty similar to what I already explained, but with a FLA rubric too.


ELA:
Well grade 6 it appears as though we will only be seeing each other digitally for a while! I will be posting what you need to know here but I have also set up a D2L shell for you to find information and hand your work in. Please be patient as all your teachers are doing their best to make this seamless for you, and your parents! I hope you have been keeping up with your reading over the last 2 weeks.
I would like to connect with my 6.1 students on Tuesday April 7th at 1:00. So on Friday you can expect to see a link on this blog page to join up for a GoogleMeet. It is super easy and fun because I will be able to see and hear you all and you will also be able to see your classmates! So keep reading and we will "see" each other soon.
Ms.Feke

It is sad that we had to cancelled the Math Test planned for March 16th on the unit of Angles in Geometry.  I am sure you would have done very well as you were well prepared for it.  Keep your notebooks and assignments well organized for future learning. In the meantime, you can practice some Math with those free resources:

ELA:
Excellent work on your Book Talk Projects! For those of you who did not yet get a chance to present, please share a digital version of your work (picture, video, slide) so I can give you a mark for the representation piece.


FLA: 

This week, students finished their letter assignment.  If they are not done, they should finish it on their own time (in class or at lunch).  Students took notes on pronouns and worked on this worksheet: Les pronoms.

We had a reading comprehension evaluation this Thursday and an oral comprehension evaluation (Tintin) this Friday.  Marks will be posted no later than Monday.

Futhermore, I will confiscate any Rubik's Cube that is used at an inappropriate time, such as when there are presentations, during lessons or when students should be working.  While I agree they can help improve memory or keep the mind active, they should not be used while students should be listening or working.  The only time I will agree to let students use their Rubik's Cube in class, will be when they show me their completed work done satisfactorily.  If I confiscate a Rubik's Cube, the student it belongs to is responsible to get it back at the end of the class.

Social Studies:


This week we continued to learn about the Ancient Athens democracy and the difference with our current way of doing it. Next week, as I will be away to Bamfield with grade 9s, students will work on making a traveling guide about Athens and the history of the important buildings.
