When We're Away from School Because were Sick...

I would like to let you know what we discussed today about times that we need to take off school...

Sometimes we need to take off school because we are sick. It is not our fault and we dont want to come back to school too quickly and let other kids catch our germs...

BUT we still have the responsibility to catch-up the work that we have missed!

Morah does not expect us to catch-up all at once the work we have missed but within a week we are responsible to have all the work done.

Now that we are in 3rd grade - every day of the school year is accounted for and there are learning goals for every day! Missing out even one or two days without catching up will affect our grades!

If parents are able, it is ideal for the work to be picked up from school on the second day that a student is absent, if they will continue to be absent for more days...
