Google Classroom

Hi everyone,

Taradale School teachers are working to set up Google Classrooms. Google Classroom is a platform that will allow us to interact with students, post learning tasks, and a space where students will be able to turn in their work to teachers for feedback.

Google Classrooms for room 5 and 6 have been set up, and invitations have been sent to all students. Students need to accept that invitation in order to gain access to the Google Classroom. Invitations were sent to each student' email address ending in @educbe.ca . If you have not received an invitation, or you cannot find it, please let me know.

I am hoping to start using Google Classroom with students next week. From there we can start to organize Google Meet sessions for classroom/group discussions. Google Meet is a group video chat function.

For now, I'm asking students to accept the Google Classroom invitation. If you can do that this week, then we should be in a position to start using Google Classroom next week.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks!

-Mr. Duncan

Links to online learning websites

Hi everyone, Below is a list of websites families can use at home for extra practice on core subject areas. Please have a look and see which websites work best for you. Until the CBE determines how we will proceed, it is important for students to be reading, writing, and practicing basic math skills. Try to spend some time each day working on each three. Please keep checking the blog and email. As soon as there is more information for families, the CBE and/or Taradale School will let families know. I will follow up with blog posts passing along any pertinent information. Please stay safe, everyone.

Math Games - Roll an Array

Roll An Array: 1. Each person chooses a colour to colour their array. 2. Roll twice dice, for example 3 and 4. 3. Colour in the array for either 3x4 or 4x3, wherever you want to place it. 4. Take turns rolling and colouring your arrays. As space runs out, you will only be able to colour arrays for space that is left. If you roll and array and their is not enough space, pass your turn. 5. You are done when all squares are coloured. Thanks to Sonia and Vamika for their picture! Here is an example of a completed game (thanks for Japneek and Prajna):

Home Reading Questions

Dear students and families, Many of you have asked for questions to ask students when they read books at home. Thinking about such questions helps students better understand the books they read. Here are some examples:
