Keeping your Home Language Alive

Hello Families,

Here is another fantastic resource.  These two documents are intended for families whose first language is not English.  Additionally, resources like this often have great ideas to develop strong a language for all language learners, so all families are welcome to the resources:)

COVID-19 Resources

Here are some family resources that might support you as you explain COVID-19 to your family.



Learning at Home

Please see the Message From CBE Leadership


Class cancellations are unusual and challenging events.  During this short period before spring break, we encourage families to maintain a balanced and consistent routine for children; including regular sleeping and eating times, breaks for activity and outdoor time, and healthy boundaries on screen time.   

After spring break, additional learning resources and activities will be shared to support students in learning.     

Children are naturally curious learners and there are opportunities at home to engage their learning. We have created a webpage (see below) that offers a variety of educational ideas to support literacy, numeracy and wellness at home for this week. The resources are meant as suggestions only. You may choose to use the links and activities as needed over the next few days as more long-term educational programming is considered.

Hello




Hi Kinder Families,

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding during this unprecedented time! 

I wanted to touch base and let you know that I MISS you so much!  It is so weird being in the classroom without YOU!  It is so quiet!  Who would have ever thought I would be the noise...lol


At this point, we are still waiting on how to move forward with Learning at Home from CBE Leadership and Alberta Learning.  Please take this time to go for a walk, bake, play a game, color and just be together as a family! 


All the best,

Mrs. Sloane
