Update March 17, 2020

Additional suggestions for Learning from Home K-9

Children are naturally curious learners and there are opportunities at home to engage their learning. We have created awebpage that offers a variety of educational ideas to support literacy, numeracy and wellness at home for this week. The resources are meant as suggestions only. You may choose to use the links and activities as needed over the next few days as more long-term educational programming is considered.

Update for Monday March 16, 2020

Students/Parents,

In light of recent situations, we wish to make you aware of some of the following items that may be of help with students who wish to keep up with their schoolwork at this time. The first is a note from the school:

The purpose of teacher blogs is to inform students and their families of day-to-day learning and activities throughout the school year.  We will continue to communicate learning opportunities and will provide links to online learning resources through these blogs.  

Important information related to all school decisions will continue to be emailed to parents/guardians and can also be found on the CBE website (www.cbe.ab.ca).

Below is a list of resources that can be supportive to you during the upcoming weeks.

 d2l.cbe.ab.ca (This will take students to the foods page that I have up that includes a number of links to review sites and information related to topics that we have covered or will be covering in class).

Students may also choose to complete the Food Guide scavenger hunt that they have been working on in class. Students can access their work through Google Drive.
