We are a group of Grade 6 students here at École Golden Gate. Every day offers a new challenge as we make our way through our first year of Middle School together! Please take a look around our blog to see what we've been up to!

So many questions!

What an excellent opportunity we had to both meet and ask questions to Mme Barrett DeWiele today!
We learned so many things about our school's history and now have so many facts to use when writing our shared concours speech.

Now that we have finished our research, we still organize our ideas into common themes before starting to write our paragraphs. We certainly have a lot of work ahead of us, but the end result of having a well-planned and well-researched speech will certainly be worth the effort!


A reminder that we are also moving along with our own, individual concours speeches. Many students have already chosen their topics and there is a huge variety! Everything from Star Wars and the Beaches of Normandy to the Winter Olympics and the history of Starbucks! Our final topics are due tomorrow (for students who have not yet decided) and our rough drafts should be completed by the end of next week. The majority of our Français classes over the next month will be dedicated to the speech-writing process, so we will need to arrive prepared and ready to use our class time efficiently in order to stick with our timeline and write the best possible speech that we can!

Great work today, Gators! Et encore un GRAND merci à Mme Barrett DeWiele!
Can't wait for more learning tomorrow! :)
