Dear Parents/Guardians:

 


 

 We hope this e-mail finds you and your family safe and well. We
really miss seeing our students!

 

 
 

Our teaching team met virtually today and we are now preparing learning
opportunities for our students.

 

 
 

Microsoft “Teams”:

 

·        
Teachers are planning to make themselves available to have a
weekly “open classroom” timeslot via the Teams App so that we can live-connect with
students in a group setting

 

·        
Microsoft Teams is set up specifically for student use

 

·        
Questions and answers posted on Teams are seen by all FYI

 

·        
Students should receive a link in their student e-mail (if they
have not already) to join the teams for their individual subjects

 

·        
Students can also email teachers directly

 

 

 

Academic expectations:

 

Students in grades 6-8 are being encouraged to participate in a
total of 2 hours of schoolwork per day plus reading
(30 mins.) and physical activity (30 mins.)

 

 
 

·        
The province's Learning at Home website:

·        
BCMS’s website: 

 

https://secure1.nbed.nb.ca/sites/ASD-W/BlissCarman/Pages/default.aspx

 

 

 

Further roles and expectations:

 

·        
Our role as teachers is to facilitate and to guide learning
opportunities

 

·        
Our team will continue
sending you a weekly update with learning opportunities offered

 

·        
Your role as parents is to encourage your child to explore the learning
opportunities provided

 

·        
Students are encouraged to send in any of their work via Teams
and teachers will provide feedback

 

·        
Homeroom teachers will communicate with their
classes in the coming days about having a specific time to drop into
Microsoft Teams for a virtual video chat with their homeroom. Stay tuned!

 

 
 

Our mantra over the next little while is "flexibility,
compassion, patience."  Continue to follow the call of our
national and provincial leaders to stay home as much as possible, maintain
physical distancing when you do need to go out, and to wash your hands
frequently.  WE MISS YOU!   Your
Grade 7FI Teaching Team 
