 Happy Friday!

Here is a summary of what we did this week.  It is always advised to review with your child what they have seen in class.  Handouts, answer keys, notes and assignments given during the week are posted on Google Classroom almost every day.

School library: The library is open! This year, students will be able to borrow books from the library by ordering their books online, thanks to Mrs. Fitz! There will be no class time to order books; students should do this at home. Here is the link to order your library books:

Social Studies: We discussed about the history of the Atlantic region, such as when French explorers founded Port-Royal and Acadia, the Great Deportation of the Acadians and the conflict between the English colonies and French colonies.

Wetland creatures: Pictures of their wonderful work!

Have a nice weekend!
