Hello All, <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/u>Below is a list of literacy activities that you can choose from to work on with your child through the week.  These are not mandatory activities that must be completed, but are meant to be another option to supplement their literacy learning at home.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Write a letter to a neighbor or a member of your family.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Create a poster for your window with a message of hope or a thank you to essential workers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Have a conversation about a topic of your child\u2019s choice and aim for five back and forth exchanges. Try to avoid yes\/no questions. Try instead \u201cTell me more about…\u201d, \u201cI wonder why…?\u201d, Why do you think\/feel that way?\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Have your child choose a topic of interest (sports, oceans, a country, etc.) to find and record information.   Here is a link to the Second Street\u2019s Library’s Web Resources page that can help them with their research: https:\/\/learn.burnabyschools.ca\/index.php\/staff-resources\/elementary-web-resources<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Some words sound the same but they have different meanings. These words are called homonyms. Hoarse and horse sound the same but have different meanings.  Name 5 pairs of words that are homonyms.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Create and write down 5 questions to use in an interview with a family member or friend. Talk to, call, Facetime, or video chat with that family member or friend to conduct the interview.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

IMPORTANT:<\/strong> Please also keep an eye out for my email tomorrow.  I will be sending out your child’s username and password to you so that they can practice logging onto Microsoft Teams this week.  We will start using Microsoft Teams next week.  I am also looking into setting up RAZ Kids accounts for your child and will provide you with ussernames and passwords for that as w<\/p>\n

Also, please bookmark and check the class website daily for updates and new activities for students.  Here is the link: http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/belliveauc\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Please let me know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions.  I have heard from some of you already and I have really appreciated your feedback.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
