Social Studies

We had a special guest in our classroom today!

Her name is Miss LaChapelle and she teaches French to grades 5 - 9 in our school.

She taught us how to say the colors in French and a French song about body parts.

She also talked about how we have two official languages in Canada 

(English & French).  

That is why the containers of food that we purchase is written in English and French.

We also talked about other cultures in Canada 

and the traditions that are celebrated by the people in these cultures.

Below are some of the pictures that we used as a basis for our discussion.

Then we wrote in our journals about the traditions that we celebrate in our families.

Parents - Please discuss your traditions and celebrations with your son or daughter.
