Last (possibly) catch-up afternoon of the course

I have scheduled a catch-up afternoon for ~3:15pm on Wednesday January 12th for anyone who needs to write or rewrite an assessment (or complete a presentation). Due to the many unknowns caused by Covid, this could be the last chance for you to write/rewrite. Therefore, make sure to clear your calendar if you need a catch-up afternoon!!

Were you away the day of the test? Did you earn “Insufficient Evidence” or “Emerging” in any of the categories?

If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, then you need a catch-up afternoon! They are in my classroom, E204 and begin ~ 3:15pm.

If you were away the day of the test, just show up at the catch-up afternoon.

If you earned “Emerging” in one or more category and would like another chance to show your learning, you need to do the following at least 48 hours before the catch up afternoon:

  • Test rewrite application
  • show me all completed work that was available to help you practice the material (completed cahier, Supersite, worksheets etc)
  • Also remember that you’re welcome to come see me during flex time to get help!

Back to school (a little bit of info)

Bonjour à tous! I hope you had a wonderful, restful holiday!

There are still many unknowns with Covid, Omicron and coming back to school. Here are the things I can tell you (with some certainty):

  • The plan is for all students in the province to return to in-person learning on Monday January 10th
  • Staff and students will continue to wear masks to minimize the spread of Covid
  • Staff and students will continue to do the daily health check each day and stay at home if they are feeling unwell or have any of the symptoms on the daily health check (aka – please stay home if you aren’t well!!)
  • Make sure to eat a good breakfast before school or lunch during lunch time because students (and me too) will no longer be allowed to eat in class
  • My jury duty was cancelled, so I’m going to be teaching you for the rest of the semester!

I’m at school all week, so if you have any questions, please feel free to message me through Teams or send me an email!

À lundi!

Mme Romain
