 Hola hola Mariposas!

This morning we had our morning meeting as usual. In Math we learned about a new shape called "La Prisma Rectangular". We wrote about it and then we made our own out of paper! After that, we went to visit our Grade 3 Buddies who played games with us. After nutrition break we went to visit our Grade 4 Buddies who read to us. We got back to the class and learned about The Bear who represents Courage and then we drew our own bears.

We had a fantastic day!

HAVE A WONDERFUL SPRING BREAK!

 Hola hola Mariposas!

Today Srta Houde was back! We had our usual morning meeting and then we did our Spanish literacy centres. In Math we learned about a new shape called :la piramide. It has 8 sides, 5 corners, and 5 caras. In gym, we went outside and had free play time on the playground. After that, we continued working on our piramides that we built out of paper.

After lunch, we read to ourselves and then Srta Houde read us a book called "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" and we did some writing about our favorite part. We went outside for recess and then finished our writing then we did a run through for the concert tonight. Now we are writing this blog.

We had a good day!

Adios

REMINDER: There is school tomorrow!

Parent Update - Well-Being

 Hello Principals/Administrative Assistants: 

 

On behalf of the CBE Well-Being Team, please share an important message with your school communities. Please do so, prior to Spring Break, through your regular messaging or separately, in whatever way is most effective and timely. Please also consider sharing with your staff – this tends to be a great learning opportunity for all who are able to attend. These sessions have demonstrated a direct increase in call volume to AHS medical supports for our students and are proving an effective way to advance the well-being of our students. 

 

Our next session in the five-part series aimed at supporting families and caregivers in growing their understanding of child and youth well-being will be on Tuesday April 4, 2023 at 6:30 p.m. The session focuses onUnderstanding Anxiety.

 

This event is offered virtually at no-cost to participants. Everyone is welcome to participate, whether or not their child attends a CBE school.  Families and caregivers are key partners in a student’s education. We also understand the shared role in supporting student well-being and how critically linked well-being is to student achievement.

 

Please send out the message below to your school community. The feedback from the first three sessions has been very positive and resulted in a noticeable increase in our families reaching out for support/resources to our partner, Alberta Health Services.

 

Thank you for your support in passing this along to your parents.
