Action needed -- Grade 4 Students: please email us the names of three friends to help us to organize classrooms for next year. We will make sure that you have at least one strong connection in that new class.
Supplies Pick Up Times:

8:30-10:00- Family names A-C
10:30-12:00- Family names D-J
12:30-2:00- Family names K-O
Wednesday, May 20th

Why are we picking up supplies, if schools are re-opening? We are reducing clutter and touch points for students at the school to maintain a clean environment. Individual desks or cubbies to store items won't be a feature in physically distanced classes; we won't require students to change shoes and we will have students use their backpacks as personal storage.
What if I can't pick up my child's (children's) supplies? If you are home-bound and need a drop off, we are happy to do that for our students. If you are otherwise committed, we can arrange an alternate pick up or we can drop it off at your doorstep. We are flexible and want to be helpful.
Maintaining Community this Week
We will have a Google Meets on Thursday at 1 pm. To join the video meeting, click this link: https://meet.google.com/kmb-wijp-qff The meeting won't be available until the teachers hosting it have joined.
On Tuesday, Ms Bridal and Ms Powers are assisting with supplies pick up, so our regularly scheduled Meets is cancelled. Sorry.
Continuing Learning this Week
Lo-Tech/No-Tech You can find this week's suggestions on this link or attached to the email version of this post.
Google Classroom We are now posting a daily short-story and reflection activity for reading and writing. Math Number Talks will be focused on patterning, a pre-algebra skill. It is our hope to post one other curricular activity per day to provide our students with an hour of daily schooling. Some days, the family won't be able to get to this; that is okay. Do what you can.
Self Design In addition to our resources, we encourage you to explore the Ministry's open learning resource: https://www.openschool.bc.ca/keeplearning/
Or Mix & Match to make it work for you and your family. Please share photos and videos of you working from home with us.
Your teachers,
Ms Powers and Ms Bridal
