Bonjour! Hello! Oki! Kindergarten families,
This week in Kindergarten
We had a very full short week in Kindergarten! We’ve been working towards creating our Monster’s and reading stories, and well as writing and drawing to record our ideas. We are getting very excited to share our Monsters with you during our Celebration of Learning week.
Students were so proud to view their contribution to the Tuscany School Remembrance Day virtual ceremony. Student particularly enjoyed watching the interview with Private Nicholas Roussy, Mme Roussy’s brother.
MRU Teacher Candidates
Our MRU Teacher Candidates, Ms. Rau, Mme Tasnim, and Mme Roy, have taught several wonderful lessons this week. We discovered the Omnikin ball during PE, created around the idea: My Monster Eats... or Mon Monstre Mange…, and they were leading transitions between lessons. Over the last 3 weeks of their practicum, we will see them taking over more and more classroom instruction responsibilities as they become more comfortable.
Celebration of Learning
Starting Friday, November 19th, parents and students will have access to our Virtual Celebration of Learning! This is an opportunity for parents to engage with their children as learners, and to participate in learning activities that students have worked on in class.
We will be sending more information home this next week, but please ensure you are able to login and access Google Classroom. Please contact me if you need further support with this. All materials will also be accessible through Google Classroom, so please ensure you are able to login before this date.
- The username for each student is their CBE gmail account (@educbe.ca)
- Their email address can be found in PowerSchool (in the Report Card & Student Information section)
- Their password is set to 12345678
- If you need any support, please send me an email :)
