Grade 4 see Ms. Shaddick’s teacher page.

Grade 5 see Ms. Clark’s teacher page.

                                          

Social and Emotional

These are just extra activities for those who are interested. It is not a requirement for home learning. They are just fun activities to get you moving and grooving!

Check out Mr. Sturgeon’s teacher page for some Phys Ed ideas and Mr. Hache’s for music.

Parent/student contact:

I have had some parents reach out with concerns about having their children marked absent if they do not respond back to the daily e-mail. Please do not become overwhelmed, I understand that everyone has a different work/home schedule, and this may not be the most ideal way for your household specifically.  I am willing to work with you if you need to make alternative arrangements. Also, please keep in mind that the home learning packets will be returned to school when we resume.  If there is evidence that students have made a reasonable effort to complete the assigned work/items from the packet, this will also count as being present during home learning. I hope this helps. 

Don’t forget to check back tomorrow for day 3.

Bienvenue à Apprendre à la maison

4/5 Duffy

 

Welcome to home learning for grade 4/5D.  This teacher page will be your main source of information during this time of home learning.  Hopefully we will be back to regular classes soon.

Below, you will find a weekly agenda with daily activities to be done at home this week. Please keep in mind that I have incorporated homework that would normally be done after school into our daily routine.

For those students who do not have internet access or poor internet quality, try your best to follow the daily agenda. I will post on my teacher page daily with instructions or explanations of activities located in the weekly agenda and I will also offer some suggestions for those without internet. You will have everything that is needed for this week in your home learning packet or your agenda. Some additional resources will also be added to this teacher page. 

If you have any questions, please contact me @ paula.duffy@nbed.nb.ca. Don’t forget to check back on Monday for Day 1 lessons and instructions.

Picture Retakes are Monday. Sorry for the late notice, I wasn't aware of the date but it was posted on Social Media. SAY CHEESE!

Grade 5 Fundraiser: We are selling “Big Box” Greeting Cards, there are 33 all occasion cards in the box for the price of $33 (sold only by the box). We are asking that each student try to sell at least one box. For each box sold, the grade 5 classes will receive $10 towards end of the year activities and sweaters. This was a very successful fundraiser for our classes last year.

 

This week, both grade 5 classes brought home a card box, order form and instructions.  

 

If you choose to only sell one box, you can keep the box you have at home and return the order form and $33 payment to school. If you sell multiple boxes, you still keep the one you have at home and additional boxes will be ordered at the end of the fundraiser.  

 

Birthday boxes are also available. This is 33 birthday cards for the same price of $33. If you would prefer a birthday box, write birthday box in the comment field.

 

Please return payment and order forms by October 27th, 2021.

 

Thanks!
