Good morning parents, guardians and students, 

In light of the school closure and home learning that is taking place over the next three days, students are expected to be working from home. I will be posting several videos, a PowerPoint and some additional materials to supplement their home learning packets. 

Students should work for a minimum of 30 minutes in Math, Language and wellness EACH DAY. In addition to the material provided to you for home learning, I am adding a math challenge that will get your child outside. I will be uploading some content for the message of the week that can count toward French minutes. I will be adding a PowerPoint that I would like students to use one of the days of home learning. This PP goes with the new theme we are supposed to be learning this week and we will review it once we return to the classroom. 

Please see my note from last Wednesday for more ideas of things that can be done. I will likely be signing them up for sumdog.com if my login information for Zorbit does not arrive soon. This is a math website in English, but it is adaptive to their learning levels and will challenge them based on their needs/abilities. 

Please reach out to me if I can help you in any way. I am at the school all day, so you can call, text or email me and I will do my best to support you throughout all of this. 

Also know that I miss the students terribly, so if you send me videos or photos of them today, and every day of home learning, I would much appreciate it! Keep checking back for more content and don't forget to take care of your mental health, as well. 

With love, 

Mme Sharpe

Good morning parents/guardians and students,

I am saddened to be writing this message today, and I hope that you are all safe and well. In light of the positive case at KSE and the operational day, we will have to dig into those operational packs. 

It's like this: ideally, I'd like students to work on Math for 30 minutes, French for 30 minutes, and spend the rest of their time working on wellness. We are all very likely stressed and anxious about what is happening. For me, it's mental health first. You cannot focus on work when you are in a spiral. Start your morning with something calming. Grab a hot beverage, open up a yoga video on YouTube, and do it with your child. Take them on a short walk around the neighbourhood and talk. Watch a funny show on Netflix. Play a board game, or a video game. Try to relax your body and your mind. 

Math can consist of the worksheets I sent home, baking (make them do the measuring!), helping with your budget... get creative. Cap it at 30 minutes if they're doing worksheets. I will add some videos for subtraction with regrouping in the traditional method and will be working on making some in French using this method and others. Students can use whatever method is best for them.

French can include reading in French (they should have a library book handy), listening to songs or videos in French, talking with a sibling or adult in French, writing a creative story... It doesn't have to be limited to comprehension worksheets. 

If you have any questions, please reach out to me via text or email and I will try to get back to you as quickly as possible. In the interest of transparency and honesty, I have requested a covid test out of an abundance of caution, so I will be unavailable while I am being tested this morning. I do not believe that I have Covid, but I also have your children and my own to protect. I will update you when I get my results (I am asymptomatic, just to be clear).

Please know that the priority for you and your child today is to keep your sanity and minimize your anxiety. I am sending all of my love and compassion to every one of you. 

Mme Sharpe

I sent home Covid packs IN CASE learning reverts to online in the future. Please put these in a safe place and only use them in the event of online learning :)

We had a wonderful day full of meaningful, sensitive discussion about the meaning of Orange shirt day. Students were polite and empathetic, and very inquisitive. Photos of our tribute to come. ...

Hi everyone! I've been trying to accept parent requests as they come in but there is a glitch in the system. I will send home student codes and hopefully that will allow me to connect with you all. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Reading- 20-30 minutes per night

*** Reading can be done in both English and French. I recommend reading in French for 15 minutes and English for 15 minutes every night OR alternating nights (20-30 minutes in French one night, English the next) 

Reading is an important way for your child to expand their comprehension and vocabulary. The more they read, the stronger they will become in French and English. Reading in both languages is important! 

PICTURE DAY is Thursday, September 23rd for our Grade 5 students. Be sure to wear something suitable for pictures :)

Please return library books on Friday, September 24th. If your child still has books that were checked out prior to the school shutdown during covid, overdue book titles will be sent home in their agendas. We would really appreciate it if you took a moment to look for these overdue books at home. 

Have a wonderful week!
