Welcome Families to Home Learning.  A few notes...

1. The assigned homelearning is a guideline.  This is a flexible schedule students can work through for the week.  The activities are suggestions for learning based on their grade level.  

2.  The province is suggesting that Grades 3/4 students do approximately 5 hours per week.  On a daily schedule it is about 30 minutes of Literacy and 30 minutes of Math.  Reading is just great to do, every day.  It will help in all subject areas and functional life skills in the future...personal finance, jobs, instructions, math, literacy, social studies, science...read, read, read.   

3. Home learning is a work in progress for everyone.  There are all kinds of learning.  Now that the nice weather is coming, learning can be outside.  If you have any great ideas for activities that you would like to share with your classmates, please send them along to me.  We know that many families are still working.  Do the best you can do...that's all any of us can do at this time.   

4.  There will be hiccups as this is new for everyone.  Children are not meant to learn alone.  Make any of it as interactive as possible whether it's online with a friend or with a family member in the house, or both!  Please don't hesitate to email me at kendra.mclean@nbed.nb.ca with questions or good news.  I'd love to answer your questions and see what you've been up to.  

See you online but miss you in person.  Stay tuned...
