We have been ploughing through the year, both figuratively and literally with all the snow we’ve been getting, but soon we have the March break to look forward to!
These are unprecedented times in the world, and there is so much to learn and talk about with our students. Things can get heavy, but remember we always have our tried and true teaching topics to fall back on in March. Some special days to talk about with your students this month: March 8th International Women’s Day, March 13th Daylight Savings Time starts, March 17th St. Patrick’s Day, and one of my favourite days - March 20th the first day of spring! You can check out some more ideas for special dates here: Holidays and observances in Canada in 2022 (timeanddate.com)
Don’t forget to check for Avenue updates from Danielle, and remember to reach out to her if you want to join the zoom session on Friday March 4, at 1:00pm to learn about the Read Aloud Poodle she shared at the end of our last meeting. Also have a look at our Google Classroom where you will find some helpful links such as one on vocabulary here: https://www.languageguide.org/english/vocabulary/
Finally, a big thank you to Kate who shared her awesome plans for March!
