Tuesday, Nov. 24

Highlights:

• In Math, we continued practicing the Making 10 strategy. We played a game to practice our addition facts that make 10. I can teach you the game and also show you a fun magic trick with a deck of cards!
• Today, we reviewed what nouns are. We completed our noun towns!
• In Lively Letters, we learned the 'h' and 'w' sound.
• For Social Studies, we learned why people chose to live in the different communities. Ask me one of the reasons people lived in Meteghan. 

Reminders:

We have been reviewing mask use with students and families this week to ensure everyone is following protocols to the best of their abilities.  

While at school, students are expected to:

- wear their masks at all times when in the hallways, at the office, in the bathrooms and at the fountains

- wear their masks in the classrooms when working within six feet of anyone else, when working at a table with a partner, or when receiving instruction on the floor

- ensure they are not facing anyone, talking with anyone, or walking around when they are taking mask breaks within the classroom.  (ALL classroom teachers provide mask breaks to students throughout the day.)

- wear their masks when socializing on the playground, but keep them around their arm or in their pocket if they are exerting themselves during physical activity outside

- respect the adults that are speaking to them about putting their masks on and following the guidelines.  (In the event that a student repeatedly and intentionally fails to follow guidelines, the school may respond with CBE's Progressive discipline regulations.)

- keep an extra LABELLED mask or two in their backpacks in case they lose them or in case they get dirty

- allow adults to determine who should be wearing masks and understand that for medical reasons, some students have mask exemptions

Please see the Non-Medical Face Mask Guidelines for additional details.  [/calgary/emailattachment.php?id=145870&caid=191450&name=Non-Medical-Face-Mask-Guidelines.pdf]Non-Medical-Face-Mask-Guidelines.pdf   

Thank you for your help with this as we strive to ensure the safety of our entire school community.
