The Blog Post Before Spring Break

March 23rd, 2021

Hello families!

This will be our last blog before Spring break. A few notes/reminders:

• I did not assign a homework task for this week because we'll be going on break for a week. I will assign the next one on the Tuesday we come back to school.
• As always, email me anytime at akwill@cbe.ab.ca if you have questions, concerns, or are looking for ways to support your child's learning. I'm happy to help whenever I can!
• If your child has been required to isolate, please contact the school so that we are aware and so that I can send them their classwork on Google Classroom until they are allowed to return. The school has Chromebooks available to rent if needed.
• Google Classroom (and this blog) are both tools that help me to stay connected with students and families during these strange Covid times. With the exception of student who have been told to isolate, Google Classroom will have a literacy and a math task posted each week for extra help and for any students who are home sick for a day or two. It is to keep families aware of what we are working on each week incase someone is away or needs extra help. They are not mandatory assignments for the students, just resources to keep them caught up with the rest of the class.

I wish you all a sunny, relaxing Spring break with your families!

- Mrs. Will

Hello Families!

We hope you were able to enjoy some of that early Spring sunshine peeking through the clouds!

Two messages from Mrs. Will:

1. A reminder that your child will be bringing home a short homework task each Monday that is due the following Monday. These are not meant to be difficult or time consuming, just an opportunity for your child to practice time management skills and to prepare for regular homework in grade 7. Students can hand their homework in early or ask any questions they have before it's due.

2. The Spring poem that we wrote as a class for our Spring Concert is I.N.C.R.E.D.I.B.L.E! Our class worked so well together to co-write a poem with 21 authors (no small feat!) that shows off our strong understanding of figurative language and kept a tone/mood consistent for our audience.
