I am very sorry that I was unable to be available last night at the welcome BBQ.  However due to my falls at school on Sept. 4 and 5 I will be off until Sept. 20.

I want you to know that your children are in extremely great hands as Mrs. Daub was in for me today and Mrs. Cheryl Berke will cover the rest of my time off.  Both of these ladies are seasoned grade 4 teachers.  Your children are in wonderful hands and I shall return on the 20th.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email me at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca

Just a reminder that if you wish your child to bring their computer home daily, they will not bring their charger to school.  If they are taking their device home daily, please ensure that it is fully charged and they remember to bring it to school daily.  Also, Please send me an email at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca indicating that you would like your child to bring their device home daily.  This is put into place to ensure that you are in agreement with them taking their device home.

If you have any questions or concern, please do not hesitate to contact me at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca or 780-963-3535

Thank you so much for your support.

Students will be starting and growing their own strawberry plant and will need something such as a large yogurt or cottage cheese container within the next week.  We promote recycling and really encourage reusing items.

Thanks for your support.

We will be participating in Play Parkland again this year.  Our sessions start on September 25 with Aerials and the Pool.  As in the past Aerials requires parents to fill out and sign a release form.  I have sent these home with the students today and would like them back by Monday, September 17.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca

We will be attending Play Parkland this year and students will be needing skates by October 23.  Totem Outfitters in Edmonton has an extremely good used program.

Hello All

I am very glad that my blog is back in order 🙂  Thank you to all who have subscribed.

Students have now all been set up on their chrome books and their login information was sent home to you so that you can go on google classroom to see what they are learning. I have recommended they stay at school due to possible damage going back and forth, forgetting it at home, or bringing it uncharged.  However, if you would like your child to bring their device home daily, please email me at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca to let me know otherwise I will have them keep it locked up at school.  This is to ensure they are not taking it without your knowledge.

Backpacks for taking their learning outside:  A small backpack such as the ones they have for their gym cloths work fine as long as it can fit a clipboard, sitting pad and other learning materials will work fine.  It needs to be a backpack so they can keep their arms free and is best if it is smaller than the ones they bring to school each day as they get quite heavy and bulky in the bush.  Also, they can’t use that one as it would take too much time for them to unload and load each time we need to use them.   I have included a picture of the packs we used in the past and the bigger items that go in the pack.

Please contact me at dmaser@psd70.ab.ca if you have any questions or concerns.

I look forward to an exciting collaborative year of learning.

I can’t believe how quickly time goes by when you are having so much fun!

Thank you all so much for a wonderful yea!  You are such special people.  It was a pleasure to be your teacher and see you in your excitement learning new and wondrous things.    You shared in my love for nature and truly became responsible nature lovers as well.

Thank you and have an AWESOME summer.

Sincerely

Ms. Maser
