May 7/21

 Hi Everyone,

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*Your children have likely mentioned the reduced number of students in surrounding classes (and today our class). As you know, there several students/staff in the school currently isolating.   A few parents have now contacted me to say that they are choosing to keep their children home for a little while. In order to support you while your children are at home,  I have updated the 'Home Learning Links' section of this blog to include a link to our Fairview Library where you will find a gradual/remote learning resource that was created by the district last spring. There are also several more great sites available under the same 'Home Learning Links' tab.  This includes a K-5 Free worksheet section.  Type in the grade and it will guide you from there.  In math, our current focus is addition/subtraction with and without regrouping, rounding, money and word problems.  Many students would also benefit in a review of place value.

*Just a reminder to please pay the $10 for the memory book via the parent portal if you have not already done so.  I will be ordering photos, making collages shortly so I will need to know the numbers of students to create these for.  Thank you!

*A library form came home earlier this week.  We will be having a Zoom tour of MR Library.  As part of this, they will provide library cards for any students who are interested in having one.  I will pick these up from the library and distribute them at school

*I will be away next Wednesday for dental surgery.  I am hoping to be absent for the just the day. 

*I have sent the 'Scientist of the Day' home as an attachment on today's email.  Please see the explanation letter and double-sided form that they need to fill in prior to their presentation.  Everyone has an assigned date but I will obviously be very flexible with these due to the current circumstances at Fairview.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Amanda Roberts
