Week 11

Good afternoon Grade 3 Families, 
Can you believe its June already? Time has flown by in many ways, but in others, it has come to a standstill. As we communicate with our families, teachers have noticed that priorities are constantly changing. Spending time with family, being outside, and meeting up with cohort families has taken precedent over school. Some families are done with constantly pushing their children and dealing with the stress of trying get all school work done. Please know we understand and its okay to stop and breath and take a break. Really . . . it’s okay.  
Knowing that some of our students are struggling with their drive to complete tasks, we have modified some of the ways we will be presenting the work. For example, you will notice that Math will be more of a review choice board, like the options choice board. We ask that students choose a math task each day and record the task in the chart. If there is work to share, take a picture or video. We are hoping to engage our students while providing some time to review the skills we have learned prior to schools closing as well as after.  
In addition, we noticed that students really enjoy our Friday meetings with all grade threes. Therefore, the last two Fridays, during our meetup, we will have an opportunity for students to showcase a talent. This is completely optional. All students are welcome to join and watch, but only those who fill out the form prior to those dates will have the opportunity to share something special they have been working on during this time. To ensure the content and activity that students will be sharing is appropriate, we ask that parents first discuss the talent with their child, plan for opportunities to practice and fill out the attached form. Each student will be given up to 2 minutes to showcase for the other grade 3’s. We are excited to see what hidden talents our students have.

Good afternoon Grade 3 Families,   This is a very sad week for us as this will be the last week where we see all of your wonderful faces on the google meet ups,  we will be reading t he last Friday letter you wrote to us and of course  watching  the  talent show to share your passions.  All the grade three teachers are sad to see the year come to an end.  On that note, we will be changing the time of the meet up this coming Friday.

Week 5

Good afternoon Grade 3 Families,   We hope everyone is doing well. The grade 3 teachers have been reviewing the work students have been handing in  this past week.  We are pleased with the work we have been seeing and are hoping that the changes  we have made to the structure of our classrooms  have made  schoolwork  easier for your family.    Please ensure that when your child is submitting an  assignment,  they click the submit button on the top  right-hand  corner of the screen. This ensures that their teacher knows the assignment has been  completed!              On a side note, please know we appreciate all the work our families are doing at home with the students. We understand every family has their own complexities at home and everyone is trying their best. We are here for all of you, to help you through this new type of learning. Please reach out if there ...

Week 4

Week  4:        The grade 3 teachers have been reviewing the work students have been handing in along with the expectations from Alberta Learning. We have decided to change things a bit with the hopes that this will be easier on students and families as they juggle th e “new normal”.    Students will have expected assignments and optional assignments.  Each assignment leads to the next therefore they will need to be completed in order but not necessarily on the suggested day. Feedback will be given to students  as assignments are completed. We have also included rubrics and checklists to help students know how they will be marked as well as they can meet high er  expectations.    Optional assignments, such as the passion project, are included for students who want extra work. These will not be formally  assessed but  will be considered when looking at final marks for  Language Arts....
