Tuesday Feb 18th

Good afternoon families,

I hope you all enjoyed a long weekend and got some time outside. I am still working towards keeping you all up to date better through the blog. Obviously this is something I need to work on.

I have sent out an email telling all parents the up and coming field studies. Due to student voice, we had to rush and book some places back-to-back. We are really hoping that all goes well in getting our volunteers!

This is the letter that was sent home today through school messenger. 

Below you will find the dates of each field study for the remainder of the year. If you are interested in volunteering, please email your child teacher the date(s) you are interested. We will then confirm that your security clearance is up to date and you have completed your annual registration form. Your classroom teacher will send you a confirmation email to inform you of possible next steps and/or which dates they will require your support. If you are no longer able to commit to a date you identified, please give your classroom teacher as much time as possible to find an alternate volunteer.  
Feb. 25 (room 6 & 7) Bow Habitat

Welcome to Online Learning

Dear Parent(s) / Guardian(s):       Thank you for your patience as we work through some necessary planning in preparation for resuming structured learning opportunities for your child. I understand there has been a lot of uncertainty about what learning is going to look like moving forward. I can assure you that we are going to work on key learning outcomes at-home within the parameters established by the province and CBE.       To help me understand your family’s access to technology, can you please provide responses to the following three questions:   §    Does your child have access to a computer, laptop, iPad/tablet, smart phone? If so which types of technology might be accessible?    §    Does your child have access to the Internet?   §    Is your only option a paper-based education for your child?       While the lessons I will be providing are aimed...

Welcome to the 2019 – 2020 school year!   I would like to take the time to introduce myself, Denean Langlois. I will be your child’s grade 3 teacher. This year we will be working in room 7.   I will be waiting outside to meet you and your child Tuesday morning. I will be standing by the basketball hoops carrying a clipboard with my name on it to make it easier for you. Students will be using the north doors when they enter and exit the school at all times.   I would like to remind you of our school hours: 8:55am – 3:35pm, with early dismissal Fridays at 12:30pm.    To help your child be successful this year, please consider the following:   Eat a healthy, hearty breakfast   Have a good night’s sleep (go to bed at a reasonable time)   Send a healthy snack for morning flex time and if something is needed in the afternoon   Send indoor running shoes   My blog is in the process...

Happy Tuesday! I hope all of you are dressing warm for this weather. It is unbelievable how cold it is outside. These past two days week we have continued with our exploration of the human ear. Students made 3D models of the parts of the ear and then presented their models to the class. It was interesting to hear what materials were chosen for each part. For example, one student shared they chose a backwards cup for the pinna so the sound has a big opening and then funnel into the ear canal. One student explained they chose a material that was flexible to represent the ear drum so that the sound waves can create a vibration which can then travel through the bones to the cochlea. Ask your child how the ear works and what the purpose of each part may be. Field trip forms for the zoo were handed out today. I will need 5 volunteers for this field study. If you are available, please let me know through email. I cannot take more than 5 so the first 5 people will have preference on thi...
