The children en- joyed finding out about magnets. They have been learning about Canada and addition with regroup- ing for math. In language, Mrs. Hessels is reading Knee -Knock Rinse by Nat- alie Babbitt to them. They also are learning keyboarding skills on the Icons. For the Christmas concert, "Cooking Up Christmas," they are learning their parts and songs. They also will be singing with Grades 1 and 2. Vanessa Wall has moved to Brit- ish Columbia. The Grade 3-4s wish her a happy trip. Birthdays for No- vember were: Vanessa on Nov. 25, Matthew Hanna on Nov. 25 and Danielle Delong on Nov. 27. Grade 4-5 News The Grade 4-5s have been very busy this fall. They are anxiously awaiting letters from penpals who go to Frittenden School in Kent, England. They will send them Christmas greetings. They are trac- ing a Christmas card from them to send to their penpals. They are working on cotton ex- periments and have made up their own experiments to learn many sci- entific methods. They have made pictures on the exciting novel 20 and 10. Now they are reading a novel entitled Num- ber the Starts. It is about Danish children during World War I. The children had a special time looking at the World War I and World War II memorabilia brought in by the students. They have had all -about -me presentations this year by Heather Rochetta, Matthew Cowan, Paul Garniss and Darlina Delong. Grade 6 News The Grade 6s have enjoyed some more class spotlights to update them. They were by Devin Moffatt, Lisa Black, Stephanie Burchill, Amber Koehler, Katie VanCamp, Adam McBurney and Kenny McCracken. Some of these present- ers also brought their pets to intro- duce to the class. The Grade 6s have been studying and reading The Phantom of the Opera, written by Gaston Leroux. They hope to read more every day as they have been enjoying it very much. The pupils have finished work on research projects in social stud- ies. The subject for each group of students was one of the provinces or territories of Canada. Each group has made its presentation to the class. In math, they have been review- ing addition, subtractions, multipli- cation, division of decimals, as well as problem solving. The class has had a reputation since September for being accident- prone. Travis Campbell broke his arm, Chad Cook fractured his fin- ger and Craig Marks broke his Lin- ger. Hopefully this will be the end of their bad luck. Peacemaker Assembly Last Thursday, Nov. 3Q, the Grade 6-7 class held the first Peace- maker Assembly of the year. They presented a skit which gave the children ideas on how to get along well on the playground and in class with their peers. They had a "gotcha" draw for each class from Kindergarten to Grade 7.
