Farewell to my lovely Grade 4/5 class

Grade 4/5 I have loved working with you this year.
Farewell to Ellie, Carlota and Choleang who are leaving us for new adventures.

I know I will see all the returning Grade 5 and Grade 6 students next year at the new campus.
Have a wonderful summer break. See you in August.

Here is a picture of you all in the last hour at the Norodom campus. I also promised a pic of Romeo wearing Choleang's rather small t-shirt. Here it is.

Grade 5 Moving up ceremony

The Grade 5 students are ready to move up to Secondary.
Today we had a ceremony to celebrate a great year together.
Thank you to all the parents for coming to the ceremony.

Reminder - Grade 5 Moving up ceremony

Tomorrow - Tuesday June 2
Please join us at 8:00am on the Elementary Campus Basketball Court for the Grade 5 Moving Up Ceremony. Light refreshments will be served after the ceremony.  

Reading maps and schedules

The Grade 5 students tried reading Grade 6 schedules and maps of the Secondary campus to help them prepare for the move.
They found out where different rooms are located, the length and number of classes each day and some of the names of the teachers.
Note: We used a sample of a Grade 6 students schedule for this year - not next years schedule.

The students added questions to the question box. I will endeavor to find out the answers to all these questions this week.
Some questions include ...

• What do you do in the long homeroom once a week? 
• What do we learn in Science in Grade 6?
• Does our email change or stay the same next year? 
• There was no swimming on the schedule. Do we have swimming? 
• On the example schedule the student had the same teacher for a lot of subjects. Will we have one teacher for many subjects? 
• Can we sit where we like in class or is there set seating? 
• Is there a lot of homework? 
• Is Managebac hard to use - as a student? 
• I heard there is a maximum days you can be absent. Is this true?
• How do the afternoon C&S activities work? Do you get to chose your activity? 

Big dreams

The Grade 4/5 students wrote in their reflection journals about dreams they have for the future. They selected one dream to illustrate and share with the class.

Astronaut, Vet, Environmental Politician. Sport stars, inventors, Scientist, Fashion designer, Chef, Television announcer, Writers and Game creators, to but name a few.
