Notes

Good morning everyone and welcome to week #4 of Home Learning!  I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed your time with family.  This week I am adding a couple of links that I think you may find fun. I would suggest that you continue to follow our April calendar of activities.  Remember to incorporate reading each evening, if possible.  You can also try to do the following at least a couple times per week.  

Have fun boys and girls! If you have any questions, my email is carolann.moar@nbed.nb.ca

Hello everyone! We are now entering our 3rd week of home learning.  I've had a chance to speak with most of you last week and I have to say that I am so proud of both parents and my students for trying to make the best of our new learning style.  Thanks for all the support at home!

This week I would like you to continue to follow the April calendar.  Don't forget that this Wednesday April 22nd is EARTH DAY!  Take a look at some of the suggested activites or come up with some on your own.  Also, remember to read daily and practice your sight words a couple of times throughout the week. 

I am adding 2 links this week.  One is the District STEAM challenge and the other will bring you to some neat Art ideas!

Take care & stay safe!

Ms. Moar

Good morning everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic Easter with your family. Today is the start of Week 2 Home Learning. I want to remind you to do what you can and have fun!  This is new to everyone and I would appreciate any feedback that you may have.  You can continue to follow the April calendar.  I've also added the sight words and some fun math games that you can play, all you need is a deck of cards. 

If you have any questions, feedback or maybe some pictures that you'd like to share with the class, you can email me at carolann.moar@nbed.nb.ca

 

Miss you all very much!!

Here are the sight words that we have been focussing on in class.  Try to practice them a couple of times a week. Once you recognize them by sight, you can start to practice their spelling.  Make it fun!

Hangman, sight word hop scotch, sidewalk chalk words, word of the day, etc

Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well during this difficult time.  Each of you have been in my thoughts during the past few weeks, I've been wondering what you've been doing, are you having fun, do you miss school?

We will be getting ready to launch some E-Learning opportunties very soon. My plan is to make things as easy as possible for both the parents and the children.  I have decided to create a whole calendar month of simple activites that you can do at home.  As I mentioned, my intention is to make this fun, easy and stress free.  Do what you can! This calendar is mearly a guide and you can make changes as you need to.  I will also be attaching some educational websites, most are being offered for free for a trial period due to the circumstances.

Have fun & stay safe!!! Miss you all and look forward to seeing all of you soon!

Love,

Ms. Moar
