Welcome back! A reminder that the Joshua Lusk Fundraiser ticket booklets are to be returned by April 13th Notices were sent home yesterday. Money is to be sent to the office.

GG Book Fair will run this week and remain open Thursday evening during parent-teacher interviews.

6-8 students along with invited students from Millerton will be entertained by the music of Maxime McGraw, who is an Acadian musician. The event is being held in lieu of our field trip cancellation to Paquetville.

French - Gr 6 students have begun an opinion text and a public service announcement, whereas the grade 7s have begun a procedural writing, and the 8s are publishing a Photo Story from their last writing piece that will be presented in class on Thursday. As always, writing traits continue to be taught throughout as well as grammar, verbs, conventions, homophones, guided reading, etc.

Math - Monday - Wednesday will serve as a review of our unit. Unit test will be held Thursday. Practice sheets and exemplars have been handed out. Graphing and geometry will commence next week. Please let me know as well if you wish to have any additional work for your child to complete at home. Refer for my "web link" for numerous math websites to practice at home.

Mathletics activities have been assigned to practice at school and at home. Feel free to browse what you son/daughter has completed to date. Students will be told in advance when Mathletics is assigned for homework

As always, if you have any questions, please contact me at the school. I will respond promptly via telephone. Let's have a great week at GG!
