Online Learning Update
Students have a survey that needs to be completed regarding input and suggestions for online learning using Google Classroom. Please complete as soon as possible.
Students are reminded that the assignments are being provided at the beginning of the week to be completed the following Monday. Part of online learning is for students to develop their time management skills to fully complete assignments and develop their independent learning habits. Students should be able to work through their assignments by reading and following the provided instructions, complete the work thoroughly and with effort to meet the criteria of the tasks. Students are required to spend 5 hours during the week to complete the assigned work for ELA and MATH. Many students are receiving their marks and feedback from previous weeks' assignments which can be viewed in the Google Classroom classwork section. Assignments not completed or are submitted with no work entered, obviously, will not meet the grade level criteria.

- Weekly Reading Response to something they have been reading during the week. Students have been doing this all year and are now just transferring their writing into a Google document set up for them every week. There are suggested prompts posted with the assignment.
- Currents4Kids to read the assigned article and complete the quizzes and respond to a topic provided about the event they just read.
- Figurative language skills quiz
- Boggle- a continuation of the puzzle with 9 letters they have been doing for most of the year. The goal is for students to determine the mystery word and build as many words as possible each week. This is a Google Slide set up for them each week.
Math Current Weekly Work:
(This is updated in each students' Math Classroom Stream. With four classes and four different teachers, if you require specific information, please email your child's math teacher.)
- Review of estimation and operation strategies
- FRACTIONS (vocabulary and concepts, comparing and ordering fractions, fractions to decimals).
Looking for extra work for students during the week when their assignments are completed and submitted?
- Students have all been provided IXL access with login information through their math classes and can be used to provide extra practice and support in Math.
- Students also have access to typing tutorials with a TYPING CLUB account which can support the development of correct keyboarding skills.
Spirit Week : Costume Week --class picture will be on Thursday's Room 2 MEET at 1:00. I am looking forward to seeing your outfits and chatting about them!
