We’d like to remind you of the resources sent out by CBE on Tuesday evening: https://cbe.ab.ca/programs/curriculum/learning-at-home/Pages/k-6.aspx   Please make sure to take a look at previous posts on our Grade 4/5 blogs for links to learning activities.   Information changes daily, so it is important to regularly check your emails.

If you have created any artwork for your windows, please take a picture to share with us and we will post it on the blog. We are thinking of all of you! Remember to take care of yourselves and enjoy your spring break.  Much love, Jenn Barge Tanya Faulkner Steph Gordon Jenn Hess Shauna King Shawn Mori Sarah Sleno
