SHREK and more volunteers needed for La Course Incroyable

  Be sure to check out the HPS production of Shrek:  The Musical next Wednesday, April 24 or Thursday, April 25 at 6:30 p.m.  Our class will have the opportunity to see the production next Tuesday at 11:30 a.m..  Best of luck to Marley, Lara and Laurie, who are part of the production and who have committed their time and talent to the play!
  We are having a blast 'travelling' the world via La Course Incroyable.  When students 'arrive' at their new destinations, they are required to find out information and perform challenges related to their destination.  For example, when they travelled to Quebec City, they visited Le Chateau Frontenac and had to recreate a formal place setting.  Last week in Texas, their team had to complete a cheerleading routine for the Texas Longhorn football team.  Parent volunteers are needed in order for these challenges to be possible.  If you can volunteer your time on any of the following dates, please let me know via e-mail (anne.lindsay@tldsb.on.ca) or via a note in your child's agenda.

Friday, May 11 - 11:00 - 12:15 (approx.)

Friday, May 18 - 11:00 - 12:15 (approx.)

Monday, May 28 - 11:00 - 12:15 (approx.)

Tuesday, June 5 - 11:00 - 12:15 (approx.)

  Thank you for supporting your children's recent work on their Science projects related to our study of sound.  I appreciated their dedication to producing detailed explanations and truly understanding the science behind their musical instruments.
  A bientôt!  Mme Lindsay

Volunteers needed for La Course Incroyable

  Come travel the world with us as we embark on La Course Incroyable in our classroom (and beyond)!  Based on the television series, The Amazing Race, students, in teams of two, 'travel' around the world, finding information about their destinations and completing activities called "barrages routiers" related to their destination.  Parent volunteers are needed to supervise the various barrages routiers during the race.  No experience or passports needed.  All materials will be provided to you and it should take no more than an hour or an hour and a half of your time.  The more parent volunteers, the more barrages routiers I can organize, making the race even more fun.  
  These are the dates and times of La Course Incroyable for our classroom so far:
Thursday, April 5 @ 11:00 a.m.
Thursday, April 12 @ 11:00 a.m.
Thursday, April 19 @ 11:00 a.m.
Friday, April 27 @ 8:45 a.m.
  If you can let me know if you are available to help on any or all of those dates, that would be great.  Bon voyage!
