Good morning all,
I am sure that many of you were looking out the window yesterday morning wondering if it was going to snow.
Some of might even have been wondering if I would have “closed the school” for the day had there been snow.
Believe it or not but I was doing the exact same as you. Unfortunately, all we had was cold rain and some sleet.
You may know that we are having Midterm next week (Thursday and Friday, some of you may have siblings in secondary school who are off for the full week). I am sure that you are all looking forward to the break from Teams/OneNote/Aladdin.
Today marks the end of our 5th week of Distance Teaching this year and I am really proud of much work everyone has done. It has not been easy for you, well done.
The teachers have decided that we will be giving less work each day next week than we have been doing up to now.
However T’s & C’s apply to this decision.
- Today’s work is to be completed in good spirits, no trying to get away from the table to take a break or anything like that.
- Next week’s reduced work is also to be completed in good spirits, no trying to get away from the table to take a break, no excuses or anything like that.
- Children are to use their extra time to help out with whatever their parents ask them to do next week. *
*this T&C is for the children, the others apply to the children and adults!
I have sent out a YouTube of me reading this message so it can be played for the younger children.
Take care.
