Today we started the day off with a stress management activity. The students were encouraged to anonymously open up about a time they felt stressed in the form of a letter to a friend. Each student then chose a random letter to respond to in which they offered support, relaxation techniques, and advice in coping with their stress. In Science, students had their last class dedicated to the Save the Wetlands project. They will have more time in QR/WOW. In Math, we spent some time looking at patterns and students also had more time to work on their Show What You Know to prepare for Tuesday's test. In Social, we did a check in about their understanding of diversity, quality of life, and regions.

Please see the previous post for information on the Science Fair.

Thank-you for your flexibility and enthusiasm as we begin this process of emergency distance learning! As I've mentioned, we are building toward the launch of our Google Classroom on Monday morning. This will be a very important space that will function as our online classroom. This is where you will be able to find important information, your assigned work for each week, and resources necessary to complete that work. When you first log in to the Classroom on Monday (through a link that will arrive in your educbe email that morning), the amount of work there might look overwhelming. I have decided to upload a whole week's worth of work at once, to allow you to work through it at the pace that works best for you. Some of the assignments have been split up by day of the week; this is a suggestion to help you decide what to work on when. However, it is ultimately up to you and your family how you would like to progress through. Feel free to do more than the one day's wort

Hi Grade 5 Families, Please keep an eye out for an email from me this afternoon outlining some of the next steps for learning adventures. I will also be phoning students over the next couple of days to check in and respond to any questions from the email. You need to know that you are missed at school but we are really excited about what lies ahead for us, and we will be sharing details with you through this coming week. I hope all of you have had a wonderful Spring Break! I have been using some of this time to catch up on my pile of books that I haven't had a chance to read. I hope each of you has got to spend some time doing some of your favourite activities!
