Remember before Christmas when we dug soil samples from your lawn? We tested the PH and are now seeing if we can make anything grow!

Hi folks!
Today we had a presentation about online technology and how to be safe with passwords etc. And, how to continue to be kind online. Please take this opportunity to talk to you child(ren) about safety and being a good friend online.
Many students are looking for more glue sticks. Ask your child if they're in need of some!
Any volunteers? We are heading to the Miramichi Ski Club on Thursday, March 3rd from approximately 10:45am-12:15.
As usual, any questions - just shout out!

Hi Folks!
Me again. Such a busy time! This time it's more of an academic message. Here is what will be covering up until March break.
- Math: Home-learning had some newer concepts to cover. We will be reviewing these to make sure students are bang on. How can you help? Good ol' fashion multiplication times tables.
- Grade 3:
- Responsible: up to 5x5
- this week - subtraction with regrouping (ex. 421-385)
- then - reviewing/reteaching multiplication and division
- Grade 4:
- Responsible: up to 9x9
- this week - multiplication 2 or 3 digit by 1 digit (ex. 62x4)
- then - master division 2 or 3 digits by 1 digit (ex. 84 divided by 7)
- French - continue with reading strategies and sound of the week etc. How can you help? Read their guided reading book aloud for homework.
- French & English - It's Black History month! This will be our focus in both French literacy and English class. We will be reading books, writing and discussing!
- Science - we are growing plants in our classroom.
- Extras - upcoming will be skating and snowshoeing.
As always, if you have any questions - shout out! Here's hoping this week everyone is into a more settled routine and students are..... back to themselves!

Hi folks!
Students have been doing great with review, catching up and their writing. So proud of them and their positive attitudes. As always, King Street is forever busy and here are a few points to know.

- Valentine's Day: Store bought treats and Valentine exchange will be on Monday. Class list is below.
- Olympics: Lots of theme days have been sent home. Our class country is Poland and our colours are white and red.
- Solo Speech: If anyone is interested in solo speech, let Mrs Comeau or myself know! A fun experience for sure!
Thank you again for all your efforts during our time away. While you folks did great, I sure would rather teach them myself!

Hi folks,
I know the home-learning is getting....long. Do what you can. I made videos for each day and for each grade level to help alleviate some stress (https://sway.office.com/AyFBGh16LuW6RCYo). The online programs are simpler and students can be independent.
While I'd like for the home-learning to continue, I also understand that we all have our limits.
If you and/or your child is stressing and need a break, here are some informal learning that I completely encourage. Use them in lieu of the home-learning for the day and pick-up where you left off next time.
- Sign-up for this year's Solo Speech Competition. Find the information here: Solo Speech Sign-up | King Street Elementary (nbed.nb.ca)
- Check out the live cams at the San Diego Zoo. Talk about habitats, animal needs, environmental changes etc. Live Cams | San Diego Zoo
- Build something out of snow as a family like a fort or snow slide (Dad Creates Fun Ice Slide In Backyard - YouTube)
- Bake some family recipes or have kids make new ones. Here's a neat site: 19 Easy Recipes That Kids Can Make | Cooking With Kids : Food Network | Food Network
- Look through old family photos and show kids how you used to be "fun" in your younger years.
Be well and stay positive. This too shall pass!
