4C Update Tuesday March 31st

It was wonderful to connect with many of you on the phone yesterday. We enjoyed seeing many of the student videos and they probably enjoyed seeing each other’s faces.  Going forward, we have learned that we will be using Google Classroom as our online learning program. We will be spending most of this week learning how to use the program so that we can set up our classes, add content, as well as plan tasks and assignments. Please have your students check their Google email for an invitation to join their Google classroom. By accepting the invitation they will be able to access all information and future assignments. Please make sure that this done by Friday, April 3rd.

Today’s task - March 31st

Now that you had the chance to share your video with us about your break, we want you to write about it. Write a 3 paragraph journal entry about what you have been doing. The must haves for this assignment are:

Paragraph 1:

How has your household adjusted to this new normal of being physically isolated?

• Include:
• What is positive about it? Explain why?
• What is negative about it? Explain why?
• Do all of your family feel the same way about it?

Paragraph 2:

• A favorite subject or activity that you miss doing
• When life gets back to normal what will be the first thing you will do?

Students  can share their work with their teacher on Google Drive in their grade 4 folder or just write it in printed form. If your child is printing this assignment they can take a picture of it and email it to their teacher at rddewald@cbe.ab.ca .

We would like this to be completed by Friday April 3rd.
