 Bonjour! 


This week students had the opportunity to begin animal squash books! Grade 5 has already had practice creating these, which were displayed during parent/teacher conferences. Depending on the grade specific vocabulary, students create a visual diagram for 20 animals, including vocabulary and visuals to help us remember. As we move into next week, students will engage with even more songs and games, so practicing our vocabulary through art has been crucial!

And a new game called Animal Jumble, where students created groups of 3, each student drew and labelled a different part of the animal by reading the prompt on their respective card. Then all students combined their cards to see what their other group mates chose and what new animal they created.
