It really feels like the end of the school year is coming so quickly, doesn’t it!  This year has just flown by!  We had a great track and field meet on Friday!  It was so fun seeing the class compete hard and show excellent sportsmanship!  Way to go!  Ms. Froyland put together a video of our Track and Field Meet!  Enjoy!

Below is some information for you as well as what we worked on last week:

Math:  We continued our learning on long multiplication.  We will keep working on this until the end of the school year.

Writing:  Students have been mapping out their fractured fairy tales and will begin writing tomorrow.

Science:  Students have been creating a brochure for the respiratory system,

Reading: Students completed nonfiction reading tasks in which they identified various text features within articles.

Social Studies: The class reflected on all of their learning this year about Canada and the treatment of Indigenous Peoples. This week we looked at ‘now what?’ as a way to build community and hope. This included an in depth look at the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, as well as an overview of Canada’s action plan in the TRCC document. Many of the students made a decision to actively stand up to racism after we visited the ribbon display created by our high school students on the soccer field.

Current Events: Quebec map is due on Wednesday

Videos for Shelly Thiessen & Kathy Teschke

Hello parents,

We are putting together some SURPRISE videos for Kathy and Shelley’s retirements/last days at Highroad. If you don’t know them, they are two of our key office ladies we have been so blessed to have. Shelley is retiring and Kathy is moving up to Prince George where her and her husband bought at RV park. They are removed from this group and won’t see this, so don’t tell them. We will also be having a drive by parade which is currently planned for the 15th at the 3pm school pick up if you want to drop off a card or something then.

We are using a program that is super simple for our video! Click the link below if you are interested in joining and it will give you instructions on how to add your video. You could do either a little thank you clip, funny memory or something on your heart. Doesn’t need to be long, short and sweet is preferred! We are hoping to get this done by the end of next week.

Thanks!

You can email kvansanten@highroadacademy.com if you have any questions.
