le 5 mars

Bonjour

Today students go their first visit from Mme Maria (my mom!) who will be coming in each week to read with them in French.

Yesterday in Science we studied camouflage. Each student got a bug and had colour it so that it could be camouflaged in the classroom. Here is a selection! Why do animals use camouflage?


There are some tummy bugs and colds going around the school. Please review some hygiene tips at home about staying healthy: washing hands, keeping fingers out of mouthes, eyes, and noses, coughing into your sleeve, properly disposing of kleenexes etc. We did so this morning but the more times the hear it will hopefully help it stick! They are also asking about Corona virus and may have some questions (and misconceptions) about the virus. We have briefly discussed that currently no one in Calgary has Corona virus and not everyone in certain places  or of certain backgrounds has it, but that we need to be practicing some healthy habits. Here's a great link:

Merci!
