Dear Children,

It is a cloudy morning. I also see some snow on the ground.
Did it snow at your house too?
Today is Earth Day. Try and do something kind for our Earth today.
Have a great day everyone! Love, Mrs. Sobey

We would like you to write about 3 different ways that you can care for our beautiful Earth. *Remember we use capital letters to begin sentences, for the word "I" and for the names of places and people. Also, we need to put in stop marks to show where our sentences end. I’d love to hear about the ways that you are going to care for our Earth. How about you email me a copy of your writing?

Monday, April 20th
Good Morning Parents,
Hope everyone enjoyed our sunny weekend. Once again, the tasks that I am providing for your children are not intended to create additional stress in an already stressful time. They are suggestions so that students can continue to have some practice in the areas of reading, writing and math. Do what you can, when you can! My email address again is jodi.sobey@nbed.nb.ca. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns!
Happy Monday Grade One Children!
I hope you all had a fun weekend.
It looks like it is going to be another sunny day.
Will you go out to play? I will go for a walk.
Have a great day with your families!
Love, Mrs. Sobey

Scroll Down the page to “Day 3” and choose “Draw and Write Activity: Listening Ears.” Close your eyes and just listen for a few seconds. Then draw a picture and write about 4 different sounds you hear.
What does Mrs. Sobey hear? Right now, I can hear the fan going in the bathroom, the the washer machine spinning, Chase calling out to his sister and a creak in the ceiling.
* Remember we need to use capital letters only at the beginning of our sentences, for the word "I" and for names of people and places. As well, we need to put in some stop marks to show where our sentences end. I’d loved to hear about the sounds you hear at our house. How about you send me a picture of your writing?

Good Morning,
The Distict/Province is looking to ensure that all students are able to access the resources that I am providing to complete "Home Learning Opportunties." As a result, I have been asked to inquiry with each of you. If the answer is "no" to either of the following questions, please email me at jodi.sobey@nbed.nb.ca. Thanks so much!
1) Does your child have access to "high speed internet?"
2) Does your child have access to a device (tablet, computer, laptop, etc.) to complete the learning opportunity suggestions?
3) Does your child have difficulty connecting or staying connected to the internet? If the answer is "yes", send me an email please!
