Due to the extension of the school closures announced by the Minister of Education earlier this week, and the importance of having your child continue to work on their learning, I've decided to assign work to students through a Hapara Workspace. The students have used a Workspace in class before, so they'll feel familiar with its format.
The workspace can be found in the Student Portal on the School's website http://mrt.ocsb.ca/. Just look for this icon below:
Have your child search for the workspace entitled: Gr. 3 Learn From Home 2020-RF. The Workspace is organized in weeks and focuses on language, math, religion, science and staying connected!
Points to Consider:
- Set a routine (not too rigid), this will reduce stress and promote independence skills.
- With regular practice, children develop fluency in reading and writing.
- Critical thinking, problem-solving, reasoning ability and the ability to communicate mathematically are essential skills for successful learners.
- Social-emotional learning increases positive attitudes, social behaviour, and academic performance. Encouraged your child to connect with their classmates in the Workspace's staying connected section.
