Home Learning: Wednesday, April 1

Dear Parents,

Microsoft Team offers numerous functions (from allowing easier student/teacher discussions, questions, and answers to enabling teachers to upload files for students to access and vice versa), however, we require all students to be on the platform in order to use it properly. Mr. B and I will also continue post work daily on the blog.

Please see the video for how MT can be used in education: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0TlQXmFGdQ

Currently 85% of our Grade 4 to 6 students are using MT and it has allowed Mr. B and I to interact quicker and provide immediate guidance to students. Ideally, we want to move on to a few Zoom lessons, however, this is dependent on everyone accessing MT as Zoom is integrated into it.

We are trying very hard to find a balance and not further overwhelm parents, which is why we have tried to spread out the amount of information sent to you each week. However, the work that we assign to students should be done with little guidance from you as a parent, which is why gaining access to MT is important, so that we can continue to provide additional guidance and learning resources to your child.

Please email us if you have any additional questions or concerns.

Dear Parents and Students,

We are into our second week of our new normal and things still feel strange and surreal. Ms.Suckoo and I would like to thank you for your constant feedback and for the amazing adjustment your families have made in the space of one week. We are still concerned that some students are not doing their work and we ask that you please email us should you be experiencing any issues – we are a team after all!

A reminder that we will be posting daily on the blog. Between the two of us, we will try to determine how much work is enough on a daily basis. However, we will be doing a survey this week to gain more information from families to help us plot our next few steps.

We hope to be sending out information regarding Microsoft Teams (MT) this week. Once everyone is on MT, we hope to have our first video lesson and see if everyone is able to access the platform.

All the best for the week! We miss you all. Please let us know if you need help with anything.

Grade 4

Hello, Parents!

This week in Grade 4 Music, we are focusing on “Baroque Period Review”. I’ve attached the login information for all Grade 4 students for Quaver Music which will allow both of you to work together to navigate your way through the interactive lesson. There are many sections to the lesson and it can be completed in one sitting or you can divide your time up over the course of the next few days. Many of the resources I’ve provided for this week will be review from what they have done in class – students do not need to go through every single activity. I have only provided this in the event that they would like to review any of the information as some time has passed or they may not have fully understood from last lesson as we didn’t have time to solidify.

 

You can find this week’s lesson in the “ASSIGNMENTS” section of the dashboard. Once you are in the assigned lesson for the week, you can navigate your way through from the beginning, which outlines this week’s objectives, activities, and some extension activities I’ve chosen to help you solidify what they have learned (not mandatory, but encouraged). If you click on “Instructions” on each activity of the lesson, you will see some helpful tips to walk you through how to support and guide your child throughout the lesson. This week’s Lesson Outline can be found below:
