Mount Tourbillon

What a fun and relaxing day...sunshine, speeding down the hill on tubes, laughing with friends, being towed up the mountain! We earned this trip because of all our work recycling.

SKI or SNOWBOARD

On February the 5Th the grade 6 classes went to the Relais.
It was very fun. Most people chose to do skiing but some people did snow board as I did. One of my friends fell and was bleeding from the nose; that was the only part that wasn't fun=(. it was the best part of the year. I hope I go back to the Relais one day=).

Tuck Everlasting

We have finished reading the novel Tuck Everlasting. We saw that it had connections to Twilight, and to the real world of students who, as they grow older, make more and more choices in their lives. We noticed that Natalie Babbit used alot of description and metaphors in her writing. The weather and a toad were symbols that related to Winnie Foster. Winnie chose not to drink the Spring Water that would have given her eternal life with Jesse. Did she do the right thing?

robotics, Haiti & media sale!

Our air unit is ending; our robotics unit is coming soon. Say how many of you know famous robots? well if you don't know check Raz-kids and read ROBOTS; it's fun! Don't forget to read the robot book near the smart board.

We are still collecting items for the media sale.

A few people actually did chores for poor Haiti this morning; I ovreheard my mom talking to my sister that kids lost their parents and have no food back in Haiti. C'mon people help people in need!

Miss Beaty gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Next week, Miss Beaty will go on vacation (lucky her) to Walt Disney (lucky her again). We all wish her a very good time with her family even though we don't want her to leave.

I hope that with the subtitute, we will be very nice and responcible (hopefully) so when Miss Beaty will come back she will keep her nice smile on her face like we like her!

6b rememberance day

This year 6b was invited to go to the Croix du souvenir. It was very fun . 3 people in the class were chosen to read a poem and they had the chance to hold doves and shake the hand of Jean Charest, Regis Labaume, and some veterans. We were supposed to shake their hands, too, but we did not .
We were given real poppies to put around the Croix du souvenir.

My favourite part of that day was when they shot the cannon .

Some people were very emotional when they were thinking of all the people who lost their lives to make this wourld a better place to live.
