Priorities

a.) Morning Journal *

Reflect on this past week. Choose at least one reflection to focus on:

• Who would you give a bouquet and chocolate to? Why?
• What are you grateful for?
• Think of 2 stars and a wish for your past week.

b.) Literacy*

This week, we are going to reflect on our learning while looking at the core competencies. In class, we worked on our Growth Portfolios to reflect on our learning over the terms. However, this term, we will have to do things a little different since we don’t have our binders or shared classroom experience. Please note that this assignment is mandatory and required by the Ministry of Education. Please be sure to submit this.

Please reflect on your learning throughout the year. I suggest creating a brainstorming web of all the things we have done in class. Include the third term and the learning you have done at home. Your memory is probably most fresh with what you have done at home so far so feel free to focus on that.

Complete the following handout: core competencies. Please use full sentences and detail.

c.) Math

Please continue your math program.
Khan Academy, IXL, worksheets, etc.

If you would like support/guidance on a math program, please contact me

d.) Literacy – Reading *

This past week has been a pivotal one in our world. There has been a lot of discussion, education and action taking place surrounding diversity, justice, and racism. It is important we have these (age-appropriate) conversations in our homes. If you haven’t had the conversation as a family yet, I encourage you to do so.

There is a list of books compiled by Epic! Books that I would like you to look at: https://www.getepic.com/learn/epic-a-safe-place-to-explore-all-voices/ 

Please select (at least) one book to reflect and respond to using this response sheet. Please submit this sheet by the end of the week.

Extension (Optional)

e.) Genius Hour (optional)

This is an ongoing project. If you have completed it or are just starting, here is the planning sheet to start a new inquiry: Genius Hour Planning Sheet

Follow these steps:
Brainstorm – Question – Research – Present – Share

Have a good day,
