Mar. 30- Apr. 3

Welcome to week 2 of online learning! We have posted this week's assignments in our Google Classroom. Please encourage your child to log in to see what they should work on this week!

We have included a list of overdue assignments with our weekly post. If your child wishes to do more work, we have also included a list of enrichment activities that can be completed. The priority should be on current and overdue assignments.

Thanks for your continued support with this online learning platform!

Google Classroom is officially launched!

Great news! The grade 4 Google Classroom is ready to officially launch! Your child may now log into his/ her @learn account and click on the “stream” tab to view the learning activities for this week. For a brief tutorial on how to use Google Classroom, parents can view the following video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVYuZgWZC7w&feature=youtu.be

March 23- 27

Dear Parents,

At this point in time, Mme Elaine and I are waiting for the school district to give us the permission to launch our Google Classroom learning platform. We appreciate your continued patience in this regard.

To facilitate their online learning, there will only be one Google Classroom for all grade 4 students at St. Luke. Currently students are only to accept the invitation to join the classroom. We ask that they DO NOT complete any of the assignments until further notice.

To access their @learn account, please refer to the email with step-by-step instructions for logging on. This email was sent to parents last week.

Please remind your child that the comments section of the Google Classroom is not to chat with each other. This is only meant to ask the teachers questions about assignments. We are being inundated with student comments that are unnecessary.

While we wait to begin our learning journey with the Google Classroom, I have compiled a list of projects and assignments that students can work on for this week. Please read below for more detail.

Reading: Students are encouraged to continue reading 20 minutes per day in each language (English and French).

French: Any student who has not yet sent me the good copy of their Spring story on Google Docs is encouraged to do so. In addition, they are invited to submit a second journal entry in French. This is to replicate the "journal personnel" that they were already doing in class. Students can submit their entries via Google Docs.

Math: Students received a copy of the math test in their bin. Anyone that has not yet completed this test at home is asked to do so. If there is a way to either take pictures or scan each page and email them to my @learn account (students have this email address already), that would be greatly appreciated. In addition, I am also waiting to receive the math project called "l'horaire de ma journée".

Social Studies: Any students who have not completed their agriculture project on a Google Doc is asked to do so. This is a group project; however, Google allows multiple people to collaborate on the same document at the same time. Any student who was hoping to do a paper poster will have to resort to a digital poster on Google Docs.

Science: For this week, students can read the information on "la poulie" and complete the activities in the “système de poulies” booklet. A hard copy of this booklet has been placed in their bins.

Just a reminder that students are expected to complete one hour of schoolwork per day (5 hours a week), but this time should be productive.

IMPORTANT!!!

Dear Parents,

At this point in time, Mme Elaine and I are planning on sending school work, starting next Monday, through the Google Classroom platform. To facilitate their online learning, there will only be one Google Classroom for all grade 4 students at St. Luke. Currently students are only to accept the invitation to join the classroom. We ask that they DO NOT complete any of the assignments until further notice.

To access their @learn account, please refer to the email with step-by-step instructions for logging on. This email will be sent to parents, not students.

While we wait to begin our learning journey with the Google Classroom, I have compiled a list of projects and assignments that students can work on for this week. Please read below for more detail. 

Reading: Students are encouraged to continue reading 20 minutes per day in each language (English and French).

French: Students can complete the good copy of their Spring story on Google Docs and share with me. In addition, they are expected to submit one journal entry per week in French. This is to replicate the "journal personnel" that they were already doing in class. Students can submit their entries via Google Docs.

Math: Students received a copy of the math test in their bin. They can complete this at home. If there is a way to either take pictures or scan each page and email them to my @learn account (students have this email address already), that would be greatly appreciated. In addition, I have placed a project in their bin called "l'horaire de ma journée". The directions are pretty self-explanatory as to what to do.

Social Studies: Students can complete their agriculture project on a Google Doc and send it to me. This is a group project; however, Google allows multiple people to collaborate on the same document at the same time. Any student who was hoping to do a paper poster will have to resort to a digital poster on Google Docs.

Science: For this week, students can read the information on "les engrenages" and complete the activities. A hard copy of this booklet has been placed in their bins.

Religion: Students are asked to continue working on their religion project (already started at school). This is done on Google Slides. They should share their project with Mme Elaine once the project is completed.

We are presently waiting for our school administration's permission to send you more information. Thank you for your patience.
