November HBE newsletter

Good Afternoon HBE families,

I wanted to share a couple of educational resource sites with parents and students. 

All PSSD students have access to the Prairie Spirit School Division Website. The PSSD website has numerous learning resources available that may be of interest.   Kahn academy is just one of the resources that offers lessons in most subject areas. I have attached the PSSD link here for you under the student tab.  Students will need their PSSD username and password to sign in. If you do not know what your user name and password is please email me the student’s name and I will get it from the PSSD technology helpdesk. Students also have access to Office 365 by signing in. 

https://www.spiritsd.ca/students/

Another good information and resource site is called Homeschool.today,  Here is the link to that site. 

I hope your school year is going well; it is hard to believe we are already in the third month of the school year!

Take care, Lorraine Fitzgerald   HBE facilitator
