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 a webpage 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.

March Week 3 Update

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). 

Thank you.

March Week 2 Update

Students continued reading working on their literacy circle assignments this past week. On Friday, they will be learning about economics for success from volunteers who are coming to us from Junior Achievement Southern Alberta. They will learn about common expenses in adulthood, affordability, and financial/lifestyle goal setting.

Next week, students will continue their literacy circles and will begin their social studies unit on immigration.

March Week 1 Update

This past week students continued reading and working on their literacy circle assignments. Students should be finishing up their section 2 work and ready for section 3 by Tuesday. Please see the February week 3 post for access to all assignments.

Students began the next RTI cycles for Numeracy (Fractions) and Literacy (Essay Writing) on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. This will continue for the next few weeks, in preparation for the start of PAT season, which starts in May.

Next Friday, March 13th, students will participate in an Economics for Success seminar, run by volunteers from Southern Alberta Junior Achievement.
