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!

Happy Friday!

What a morning we had!
We started our day with an assembly to wrap up our Great Kindness Challenge. Together as Gators we performed over 6000 kindness acts this week! What an incredible accomplishment!

Once we got to class, Mme Careen read us the book, "Souris, tu veux un biscuit?"
This is a book Mme Careen ordered from Scholastic when SHE was in Grade 2! Wow!

For the rest of the morning, we worked on fun Valentines-themed Math questions, continued writing, reviewing and editing our Concours speeches and took time to write kind words to share with one of our classroom friends. It was a great way to kick off the upcoming long weekend!

A few reminders for next week:
1) Our Festival field trip is on Tuesday! Hé Ho! Please remember to dress warmly (boots, ski pants, mitts, toques, scarves...) and to bring a bag lunch. Students will also have the opportunity to buy snacks/souvenirs if they choose to do so.
2) Our first round of concours presentations will be taking place on Wednesday and Thursday. Students should work towards having their speeches memorized, or written on cue cards at the very least, and should practice presenting with clear, strong voices while maintaining eye contact with their audience.
3) There are still a few students who have not yet handed in their first lab report (Expérience #1) and/or our most recent Math problem-solving sheet. Please hand in your work as soon as possible!
4) Don't forget to take some time to read! :)

Thanks for a great week, Gators! Stay warm! :)
