Today students shared their photos of joy with the class.  A number of students have yet to complete this task and we have decided to extend the deadline of this task until this coming Thursday (March 31). We reviewed the goals of the task on the workspace as well as the expectations.  We are pros now!  Students have to be the ones who log into Hapara as they have been granted access (sorry moms and dads).  We were reminded of Mr. Yeow's presentation this morning... it takes ALOT of photos to come up with a 'just right' one. 
For those students who did submit their task, they will need to add an additional slide to their slide deck (insert - new slide) and submit a new photo taking into consideration our success criteria.  This can be a completely different photo from the original photo (ie. new subject). PLEASE DO NOT DELETE YOUR FIRST PHOTO ATTEMPT!!!!

Happy Easter Everyone!  What Joy did you see this long weekend?  I am eager to see what photos you were able to take.  I have attached the video link below, should you forget how to access our Hapara workspace.

See everyone tomorow!

I hope everyone had a wonderful March Break.  From the sounds of all the stories, students had a great time and wonderful memories were made.

This is going to be a short week and a full one at that.  This week students will be focusing on Holy Week.  I encourage your child to share with you the activities and tasks we have been working on.  In particular, please ask your child about the Joy photography task that they will need to accomplish during the Easter long weekend.

Tomorrow the Grade 2's will be receiving their Sacrament of First Reconciliation.  If your child is participating in this special evening, please be at St. Patrick Church at 6:20pm.  We are hoping to begin the evening at 6:30pm.  Students are invited to sit with their parents and will be invited up to the front when it is their time to go to confession.  Parents, you will be presenting your child to the priest. 
I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow evening.
