Salut et Bienvenue. Hello and Welcome.
This is the Lansdowne Blog for parents of Grade Eight French Immersion students in Advisory 52. I (Monsieur Leblond) will be posting a weekly summary with important information here for parents regarding assignments, field trips, and events happening in the Lansdowne community. Students will be using Google Classroom to keep abreast of assignments and to submit work completed electronically.
French Canadian culture is very important me as I was raised in French speaking household in Ontario. I will try will try to bring a wide range of life and work experience to my teaching and will strive to make learning meaningful and fun with the ultimate goal of helping foster curiosity, confidence and the desire in students to be lifelong learners.
Through the creation of meaningful projects that relate to our learning, and field trips that situate learning in a context other than the classroom, I hope to create a learning environment where students will be engaged in their learning. As much as possible I will try to create projects that link the curriculums of Sciences Naturelles, Sciences Humaines, Francais Langue, Math and English.
Currently, the school district is advising teachers not to plan field trips, request parent volunteers or guest speakers. I am hoping that the guidelines recently published by the provincial health authority will be adopted by the district and allow us to plan and participate in field trips, especially since being outdoors has been shown to reduce rates of transmission.

My hope is that we can integrate more place-based learning this year to make the learning more relevant and engaging in order to foster more local knowledge and a closer relationship to our community.
Thank you! Merci!
