As you have probably heard, there is no dictée this week. We have had a very busy few weeks with our focus on first nations culture, and working hard on English and French writing. Be sure to check back for more pictures of all the fun activities we have been doing!

I apologize that I didn't get this up yesterday, but I had to go home with a bad ear ache. Here is this week's dictée, along with pictures from last week. We have lots of writing to get done before Easter weekend, but we managed to fit in some science experiments as well as some art! 

Also, yesterday was the kick off to our two weeks of celebrating aboriginal culture. Monday afternoon, we had a traditional opening ceremony with a video about some art forms you might see in first nation's culture.  Today we will be watching an animated version of some legends. We had lovely conversations after the opening about the stories the kids heard and the pictures they saw!

Here is this week's dictee. It's long, but repetitive, so we spoke a lot about how to study for this one in class!

Also, if you have spare pots for plants (the green or black containers that the plants are in when you buy them from the store) around home, and are not using them, it would be great if you could send them to class. We will be doing lots of planting soon!
