Sorry to tell you about this week so late but I’ve just got back from a VERY LONG DAY at a football tournament!

This week the CM1 will be learning how to talk about animals.

CM2 will be using the past tense,

6ème will be looking at daily routines,

5ème will revise obligations and quantities for their test,

4ème will continue studying American history and prepare their timeline in Room 8,

I can’t wait to see the adverts ( posters AND at least one film!) that the 3ème are preparing. I wonder how our « peer marking » system will work.

The anglophone class will continue our study on Shakespeare and Star Wars, a fascinating combination!

DON’T FORGET – to give the TRINITY & CAMBRIDGE reply slips to the secretary this week, to register for your exams.

The 100 word challenge is for class 3A this week, but anyone can join in if they want, the prompt this week is to include the following words somewhere in the text…

… but all we could see was water…

Anyway, I’m sure you’re all in bed by now (that’s where I’m heading in a minute!) so you can read this tomorrow.

 

As always, have a great week!

 

Fab!

 

 

 

This week we have lots to do:

CM1 – Evaluation on transport

CM2 – Weather and the past tense

(also both Primary classes are going to have some fun with phonemes this week!)

6ème will be using prepositions to describe their bedroom,

5ème will be talking about summer camp and Indians,

4ème will be looking at the story of the Mayflower and American history,

3ème will be researching and talking about charities.

The 100 word Challenge

This will be obligatory for the 4ème this week, but anyone is welcome to join in.

Either send me your text or put it directly on the website 100wc.net

Last week there were 1,310 entries!

The prompt this week needs you to put these 5 words into your writing somewhere.

…GRAND   PINK   GORILLA   BICYCLE   LAUGHED…

They can be in any order but all 5 must be there.

If you can use your IT skills to highlight them, it would really help your readers see that you have included them all.

That means your piece should be  about 105 words long.

In case you’re wondering about the picture, I went to a conference for English teachers this week in Thun, this is a photo of the castle and lake of this Swiss town.

Have a great week,

Fab!
