April News
April was an interesting month, as we all worked together to navigate the transition to online learning. What a learning curve it was, so many changes and new ways of doing things. Teachers, for taking risks and learning new technology to continue to provide the best learning opportunities for students. Parents, for supporting the teachers and the students by co teaching, learning google classroom in a hurry and being cheerleaders for their children. Students, who are continuing to amaze us with how quick they learn new things and their resiliency in difficult times. Everyone should be very proud of their accomplishments throughout the past month.
As a school we continue to find ways to keep learning fun, by continuing our theme days and weekly challenges. We have seen crazy hair, funky hats, all kinds of patterns, and a pretend fire drill. We look forward to all the ways we can continue to bring these fun ideas and ways to celebrate in home learning in the coming months. Keep checking our School Facebook page for weekly Eagle Home Challenges.
Our Wellness Coach continues to provide ways to keep calm in times of uncertainty through Miss Julie's Wellness Facebook page. Check out the Zones of Regulation videos to help recognize feelings and tools to help regulate them. Our Indigenous Success Coach continues to find ways to infuse First Nation, Metis and Inuit culture into learning through the cree word of the week and other online learning opportunities for our teachers and students. We continue to support physical education with Mrs. Malcolm's challenges on her facebook page, check that out for ways to keep moving. If you are looking for ways to continue to learn French as a second language, Mme. Kenny is posting fun activities for our students. Lastly, we continue to recognize the challenges that online learning poses for keeping up with skills and concepts. Mrs. Malcom and Mme. Kenny continue to provide math boost groups to provide that extra practice needed to learn and master those skills.
We are proud to stay committed to finding ways to support our families and students until we can see each other again at the school.
Stay safe, have fun, and keep learning!
