BONJOUR!!!!

Posted: April 6, 2020

 

A big BONJOUR to all my kiddos! Oh how I wish we were talking in person. I hope everyone is staying safe, taking the time to try new things that are good for the soul, maybe even finding a new hobby or talent! I also want to give a shout out of sincere appreciation to all the frontline workers, especially those directly tied to our Amazing Dr. Losier Knights Family. THANK YOU all for your hard work!!!!

 

As we navigate this new world of Learning from Home, I want you all to know that this is all NEW to each one of us, including myself. It will take some time to get used to but I'm hoping that with regular practice from all of us, that this all becomes much easier to navigate in the coming weeks. As of right now, you have some time to navigate these teacher sites, and “visit” all your familiar faces that I know you all miss so much.

 

DLMS has decided to use the online Math platform: DreamBox for continued Math learning. Students will need a specific username and password to access their individual profiles. These credentials are provided to us by an outside source and should be available this week. To receive your login information, please email me at Lindsay.Turner@nbed.nb.ca and I will forward your child’s login information as soon as it becomes available. I will also post a link to the DreamBox login page with instructions in a separate post. Hang tight as we should be starting in the coming days!

 

I know we tend to give you all a hard time for the over use of cell phones and technology use, and how ironic it is that we are now so appreciative for these tools, to keep us connected in this time of “self-isolation”. I came across this video today and thought it was pretty interesting. It’s just a few minutes long but it’s so cool how it explains exactly how your text message to your friend gets sent through the air, directly to their phone. Pretty neat stuff, check it out here: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/video/the-physics-behind-texting/

 

Thanking you all in advance for your patience as we get the ball rolling and will be back on here soon,
