Dear families,
I know this email is long, but it contains important information. At the bottom of the email contains links, that will hopefully answer your questions about Google Classroom, and how to use it.
Thank you to those parents who have completed the online survey. If you haven't been able to fill it out yet, could you please complete it when you have a chance. It will assist me in future planning. Just click on the link https://forms.gle/PxAJKL1x2NMREREX7
The work for this week can be accessed on our class Google Classroom. The work schedule is posted above in the link, as well as on Google Classroom.   As always, please continue to use the 3 main websites I have sent you previously (kidsa-z, Prodigy, and Splash math). Thank you to those who have been using these websites, I am able to view your child's use and progress.   I will continue to send the work for the week every Monday. Please remember, your child should spend about 5 hours a week on learning (1 hour a day).
As indicated in last week's email, I am switching to Google Classroom for all language and math work.  Please refer back to an email I sent you on Monday April 13, 2020 that included your child’s login information and how-to videos (how-to videos and links are also posted below).  Google classroom will allow your child to access, complete and submit classwork to me for feedback.   I will continue to send an email on Mondays with information for the week.
Remember, the work I am posting are SUGGESTED learning activities your child can work on throughout the week.  The provided grid can be used to help organize your child's at-home learning, and make things a little easier, as well as to provide some structure and routine.  Please note, the times I have written down in the grid or just suggestions. Feel free to adapt them to work for you. The OCDSB has released a Learn at Home Phase 2 Plan.  Click here to access
Google Classroom:
When you log into Google Classroom you are brought to the STREAM page. This is where I post announcements. My classroom support teachers can also post items there too. For example, Mrs. Cruz, and Ms. Bloom have each posted messages and extra work for the kids. If you have questions about French work, or want to submit French work, please email Mme. Wereley at jodi.wereley@ocdsb.ca
To access classwork, please click on the CLASSWORK tab. I have organized the work under subject tabs, with each day having their own section. Click on the day and information about the learning activity will be posted, as well as any files you require. Most activities your child will be able to complete online. Once done, you can submit the work by hitting the "TURN IN" function. You can also share it with me, and enter my email.
Please feel free to continue to send me photos, email me their work (if they typed it out on word processor).

Dear families,
It is hard to believe that we will not be returning to school at least until May 4th!  Please have patience with the implementation of phase 2 learning from home. This is something that is new for everyone! I am still receiving information with regards to how this will work. I am trying to keep things light this week and we will enter this slowly and together. The work this week is mostly review, as well as using the 3 main websites I have sent you previously.  I will try to send the work for the week every Monday. Please remember, your child should spend about 5 hours a week on learning (1 hour a day).
The attached document contains SUGGESTED learning activities your child can work on throughout the week. (To view a larger version, press the "PRESENT" button) I provided a grid that will help organize their at-home learning, and make things a little easier, as well as to provide some structure and routine.  Please note, the times I have written down in the grid or just suggestions. Feel free to adapt them to work for you.

Covid-19 March 30-April 3 Update 2

Dear families!

I hope you are doing well.  

If you haven't done so, please have your child log in and working on kidsa-z.com (raz-kids and headsprout) for language and prodigy for math.  I will include the login information again below. These are great resources for your child to work on!  Please refer back to email entitled Week 1 learning activities, for more information and activities for your child to work on.

Teachers will be meeting later this afternoon with admin to discuss the plan to move forward after the government announcement yesterday.  I will keep you posted on what I would like to do moving forward.  Please keep an eye out for emails and please read them.  

I signed the kids up for another math program called Splash Math.  I tried this program out.  It looks great, and an excellent way to reinforce and practice math concepts!!

At the end of this email, there is a message from Mme. Wereley (Core French). She has provided some great learning activities for your child. 

Have a wonderful day!  

Ms. Hamilton

MESSAGE FROM MME. WERELEY (CORE FRENCH)

Bonjour tout le monde,

J'espère que vous ête en bonne santé et en sécurité avec vos familles. 

I am missing everyone very much, especially our time in the portable and outside for APQ.

I am going to attach some links to a few websites so that you can listen and/or watch some French shows/books. I am also going to attach the class play that we are learning and studying this year. While you are reading and practising your play, you can also do the following tasks:

-Find all the verbs (action words)
-Find all the nouns (people, places and things)
-Find all the determinants (le, la, les, un, une, des, mon, ma, mes, ton, ta, tes)
-Find all the adjectives (words that describe the nouns)

For those who are looking for a challenge, you can choose any of the verbs, nouns or adjectives that you find and write your own sentences. Don't forget a capital letter to begin and a punctuation mark to end your sentence.

Here are some websites:

1.Listening to French (15 mins/day)


Streaming
Television
  • Kids television programming on Ici Radio Canada Tele (channel 601 on Rogers, channel 101 or 1101 HD on Bell Fibe) 
  • Kids television programming on TFO (channel 12 on Rogers, 145 or 1145 HD on Bell Fibe)

Websites

Please feel free to email me directly at jodi.wereley@ocdsb.ca with any questions, concerns or just to say hi.
