Hello again, Lions! Hope you are all doing well. I sure hope we can all get back together at school on May 4th. I can't stop thinking about all the fun games we're going to be playing on the top field together. For now, you can try out some of the activities I posted to the left and right of this message. It may feel silly at first, but there are some good ideas in there on how to get some exercise without leaving your home. Take care, I really miss all of you!

Hi Lions!

I miss you all and I hope you and your families are doing well. My family and I are doing well, even though my sons in Grade 3 and Grade 5 are telling me there's "No way" they are doing homework each day while their school is closed. This will take some time for us to get used to, but it really is very important for us to continue our learning, as much as possible, while we are away from St Anne. Please check in to see if your main teachers have posted readings or assignments for you. I will be posting suggestions on this blog for ways you can help look after your health and fitness while needing to stay inside more. For now, getting outside for a walk once or twice a day is a great way to get fresh air and exercise. Eating healthier foods and getting lots of rest will help keep your immune system strong. As this is a stressful time for you and your family, please feel free to look at the "Stress Lessons Toolkit" (Grades 4, 5 and 6) and talk about the lessons with your parents. We only made it about halfway through this unit, but you can go ahead and explore all of the lessons, including the ones we didn't start yet. Take care!
