Happy Weekend!
LiteracyOn Friday we read a beautiful story, "A Chance to Shine" that showed how we can be "Responsible Citizens," out first Catholic Graduate Expectation. A few questions to think about for Monday.....
- What does it mean to be homeless?
- How might someone find themselves in this situation? What might have happened to them?
- Why did the father decide to help Joe?
- Why did the boy begin to 'hang around' with kids he used to call strange?
- What lesson did he learn from his father?
- How might you give someone a chance to shine in your life?
In Math, we learned a practical application of standard form and words, writing a cheque! You may choose 5 items from flyers either on-line or paper flyers. Remember to practice signing your name on the lined piece of paper. Make sure your cheque is clear and easy to read.

Art
The artist we studied on Friday was Henri Matisse. What do you remember about this artist? Where did he live? What happened to him later in life? Remember Matisse's use of organic shapes as you complete your art.
Here's a humorous story about Matisse and another famous artist...
