Thursday, April 30th Online Learning

Today is our final day of Spring Into Reading - You are invited to dress up as your favourite book character! 

You can send me a picture or share it to the Spring Into Reading section of our Flipgrid! 

Alternatively, you can also show us during our Google Meets at 10 am. 

Instructions for how to get onto Google Meets or use Flipgrid can be found here: http://thefriendlyfours.blogspot.com/p/the-how-tohelp-page.html

Some of you are ready to share your version of your "If You Give a _____ a _____" so you can share it on our Google Meet. If you are too shy to share, or not finished yet, that is okay too! We can share them next week, you can read it to us on Flipgrid, or bring it back to class when we eventually go back!

We are also going to try out a new review game I found called Gimkit. Please watch this video below before our 10 am meeting if you can to familiarize yourself with the game. We are going to try and see if I can do it with you through a Google Meet!



Google Meet will be posted at 9:55 on the Google Classroom Stream homepage. Please do not ask me for the code! Just follow the directions and click on the link in Google Classroom when it appears at 9:55 am.
