On Going Learning

Hello Families:

We hope you enjoyed your week of our new online learning platform. It was so lovely to connect with the students this week through Google Meets. This week we have been trouble shooting different problems that might arise with this new learning and we are hoping this will become more smooth as we get going. Thank you for all of your feedback and giving this is a try. We really appreciate your patience. We understand all of the time and efforts this puts on you to support your children. Thank you!

Moving forward, we will not be updating this blog regularly as we feel that Google Classroom sends out updates for assignments and all of the information you need is also forwarded to your e-mail.

We loved using this blog these past few weeks to update you on what your friends are up to. Your teachers and your classmates love seeing you! We would love to continue this. Please feel free to upload your photos directly on Google Classroom under the Stream section. You can respond to each other as well.

Please enjoy your long weekend and check back into the classroom on Tuesday. Friday is Good Friday and Monday is a PD day.

We miss you all so much! Please check out our Classroom Stream for a very special video that the Copperfield Teachers made for you. You can click HERE to watch the video

Our poem says "I think I can"! This is a positive mindset that we are trying learn to say to ourselves even when things are hard. We listened to a story called "How to catch a star" which is about a boy who loved stars and wished he could catch his own. We counted that he tried at least 5 different ways to catch a star and did not give up until one of his ways worked! We brained stormed what perseverance is and made a list. Then, we drew pictures of a time that we thought something was hard but had to persevere to accomplish it. We drew before and after pictures of what it looks and feels like to persevere! Some of us drew about learning how to ride a bike, swim, skate, climb monkey bars, and play hockey. REMINDERS: We seem to have a fruit fly problem ...

This week, our new sight words are: who went what but so Our poem is: Our teachers are very proud of us and all the work we have been doing around our reading skills. We have been really good sight word detectives and finding them hidden in other words. Please click on the poem above and ask me to find the sight words this wee: but, so, went.
