Hi there, Division 10!  Today is a Pro-D Day at our school.  Please take the time today to finish up any activities that you need more time with (such as the communication writing activity) and listen to, read, record, and answer questions about the new assignment on Raz Kids that I put up for you last week, if you haven’t done so already.  I would like  you all to listen to the new story that Mrs. Roberts has posted on her blog called “Let’s Talk About Race“.  Once you have listened to the story, have a conversation with Mom and/or Dad about it.  We will talk more about this tomorrow and later this week.  Have a great day!  

Hello, Division 10!  It was great seeing you all on Zoom yesterday.  Please email me your communication writing assignment when you are done it.  Please take your time with the following assignments.  You can use Monday to finish up any incomplete work as it is a Pro-D Day.  Here are the activities for Thursday and Friday:

Hi, everyone ! Happy Thursday!  I hope you have all had a fantastic week so far and have had a chance to get out in the nice weather we have been having.  Today I will be at school for most of the day preparing for next week so our Zoom Math session will be there.  We will be using our class calendar and our prior knowledge to share new and familiar learning concepts.  Here are today’s activities:

1) Zoom Math– 11 AM today!  Be prepared and ready to share! 

2) Draw and Write Reflection– think back to what you have learned about salmon, the Great Bear Rainforest, cedar, and totem poles. You might want to get out previous assignments to help you with this 🙂  Using the worksheets below, choose 2 circles to draw and 2 circles to write in about something important you learned about each circle.  Make sure to add details ! When you are writing, you can add lines to help you share your thoughts.
