Learning Celebration/Célébration d’apprentissag

                                                        June 12, 2017

Dear Parents,

Our Grade 3 Social Studies Program gives us an invitation to get a taste of different foods around the world.  We would like to celebrate the different types of food by having a very authentic culinary experience. 

Of course, we will need helping hands in order to make it a success.  Therefore, we encourage each family to make a dish from their tradition (background) or from one of the countries we have studied this year: Peru, India, Tunisia, Ukraine, and Canada. 

If you are interested in making a dish, bringing plates etc., or helping set up/clean up, please send an email to Mme Bainbridge and your name will be added to the sign-up list for both classes on Mme Bainbridge’s blog. Please check this blog for ideas on how you can help!

When:  Monday, June 19 at 11:00

Where:  Gymnasium

Who:  Parents and children of Grade 3

What:  Learning Celebration

ALLERGIES: Peanuts, tree nuts, cashew nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, pistachios, coconut, chocolate, milk.

Due to allergies and dietary restrictions, please include the list of ingredients with your dish.

I will be updating the list on my blog for this celebration. Parents from both grade 3 classes who would like to sign up may contact me with their contribution at

judy.bainbridge@cssd.ab.ca

Once your email has been received, confirmation of your contribution will be posted on the blog. Your name as well as classroom (3B or 3M-C) will be on the list.

Sincerely,

Judy Bainbridge

Gala d'art oratoire 2017

Bonjour,

We will be preparing students for the Gala d’art oratoire 2017 which is a showcase and a celebration of student achievement in French public speaking. The Gala is not a competition. The only “competition” part of the process is the school’s selection process to determine which presentation at various grade levels will represent the school. One student per grade level will participate in the Gala.

Students have selected a poem (poème/comptine) to memorize and present to the class (maximum 1.5 minutes in length).

After presenting to the class, some students will be selected to present in front of the other grade 3 class. The school district has prepared a rubric to facilitate the selection of these students.

One student from grade 3 will be chosen to represent the school at the Gala d’art oratoire 2017 to be held on Saturday, May 27 from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. at Bishop McNally Theatre, 5700 Falconridge Blvd N.E. The students will give their presentations on the stage before the audience.   All of the Gala participants are presented with certificates at the end of the day.

In order to begin preparing for this activity, your child is to begin practicing and memorizing the poem in order to present to the class on Monday, May 8.

If your child is chosen to present at the Gala d’art oratoire, a letter will be sent home.

Crazy Hat/Lid is next Theme Day will be on Thursday April 27.  Also, please bring a toonie to give to kids cancer to help the kids who have shave their “lid” and wear a hat.  Merci!
