Week 35 : May 4 - 8

Dear parents and students,


French :
SPELLING : We have been working on the sound "in" and did a spelling test on Wednesday.
CONJUGATION : We have been working on 2 past tenses: imperfect vs past perfect.
READING : We have been reading the chapter 6 and worked on VOC 29.
Rallye-Lecture : We still have 2 more weeks to read as many books we can for the Rallye-Lecture. So far, the students really enjoy this "quiet time" and perform very well on the comprehension. Bravo !

Math :
We have been reviewing for the next tests on Monday and Tuesday.
Calcultation : We have been working on dividing by 5.

Discovering the World :
SCIENCE: We are working about the metamorphosis of various insects. Indeed, we have been watching three insects complete metamorphosis : the mosquito, the dragon fly and the butterfly. We noticed the similarities and differences.
We started to work on the stage of their life cycle – egg, larva, pupa, and adult – looks different from the others.
Thanks to Kian and Albert who brought different bugs (bees, crickets and one mealworm) for us to observe.
