AN INTERVIEW W ITH M ISS NATALIE
Miss Natalie is a McGill student-teacher who worked with the Grade 6 classes from the first day of
school until the first week of December.
Miss Natalie has always liked working with younger kids. When she was little, her sister always
played teacher with her. While being a student teacher, she's learned that you have to be patient.
She has also learned that you should have fun every day no matter what.
Her favourite school subjects are probably science and English. Miss Natalie?s favourite hobby is
synchro (she also teaches a team). If she wasn?t a teacher, she would probably want to be a chef.
She can?t resist pasta, burgers, asian-style food and sushi. She loves comedy and suspense movies.
Miss Natalie?s favourite book is The Pact.
A funny story she was willing to share with us was that one day, Miss Natalie was at synchro
practice and while she was walking, she slipped and fell on her butt! Ouch!
Thanks for working with us Miss Natalie! We miss to a lot already!
UNE ENTREVUE AVEC M M E NADIA
Mme Nadia est une enseignante de maternelle à Terry Fox. Pendant sa carrière d?enseignante
elle a déjà enseigné à une autre école avant Terry Fox. Elle a enseigné à St-John Fisher. Elle
est une enseignante car elle aime beaucoup les enfants et elle aime voir les enfants grandir.
Elle veut aussi partager avec les lecteurs qu?elle aime quand les maternelles font des activités
avec les 6ième années parce-qu?elle voit ses anciens élèves. Elle aime aussi enseigner la
maternelle car elle aime avoir des nouveaux élèves chaque année. Si elle n?était pas une
enseignante, elle ouvrirait un magasin de livres pour enfants
Mme Nadia aime enseigner la maternelle. Son année préférée était la 6ième année quand
elle était jeune. Elle est passionnée de l?équitation et de la planche à neige. Elle en fait
lorsqu?elle n?est pas à l?école. Son mets favori est le homard. Elle aime les films d?animations.
Son livre favori est <<La rébellion chez les crayons.>>
L?histoire la plus embarrassante de Mme Nadia se passe au cinéma. Lorsqu?elle est allé
chercher du popcorn pour sa famille elle retournait mais elle n?arrivait pas à les retrouver. La
salle était noire. Elle a vérifié pour dans les toilettes, dans le stationnement pour retourner
dans la salle de cinéma. Finalement, elle a retrouvé sa famille après le film. Merci Mme Nadia
pour votre temps.
FUN STORY
Wendy?s Fort
Wendy needed to go in her backyard to get materials
for her science project that was due tomorrow. She
totally forgot that it was due tomorrow. She hadn?t
done one thing for her project. She got some of her
materials. She found 12 yellow leaves, 20 brown leaves,
3 red leaves and a couple sticks. She decided to do
most of it at her place then do the rest of it at school
first thing in the morning.
PEER M EDIATORS 2016-2017
In November, we announced the full Peer
Mediation Teams for the rest of the year.
These grade 6 and 5 students have been
partnered up to help out anyone who needs it.
She wanted to make a little fort with her hamsters
inside. They?re names were Nibbles who was the oldest,
Batman, who was the second oldest, and finally Sushi!
Later the next day Wendy found out from her best
friend Adrien that they had science right away when the
bell rings!
?Great! great!?
?What?? Adrien asks Wendy.
?I forgot to do my science project and I didn?t get a good
chance to finish it! And now it?s due today!....?
?Wait! What? It?s due today???? Adrien yells.
?Apparently.? Wendy replies.
?NOOO! I thought it was due in January!!?
?Well you're wrong! Because it?s due today. Suzie even
told me.?
?Suzie?! Suzie the prankster?? Adrien asks Wendy in
surprise.
Later, the bell rings to line up and go inside. Then the
second bell rings and they went straight to science
class. Wendy went to go inform Miss. Bailey that she
forgot to do the science project that was due today.
?What?? The science teacher says.
?Yes. Im super sorry.?
?It?s not due today it?s due on January 10th!?
?WHAT???? Wendy yells in crazyness!
?Suzie really! Are you for real? I worked really hard and
did so much in only one day!?
A couple hours later when the recess bell rings,
Wendy, Adrien and another friend named Monica
went outside and just spent their recess talking
about Wendy?s fort and how she had made it.
