K-5 Big Lake Online Family Newsletter

Here is where you will find out about the latest and greatest in K-5 Big Lake Online.

We've celebrated Spring, participated in MCA testing, learned about the solar eclipse, and done our part in taking care of the Earth.

National Pet Day was a highlight as well. We build relationships with one another online, but a bonus is that we often see parents, siblings, and even each other's furry friends.

Big Lake Online is proud to offer a self-paced program that allows for a beautiful balance between family life and school.

Monthly Connection

April "Taking Care of the Earth"

Connecting with one another without a screen in between is a priority for our K-5 learners and we do it BIG and we do it FUN!

This month, we will get together and soak in the sunshine and our time together.

Recycled art, planting, and a nature scavenger hunt are on our in-person agenda.

It's hard to believe we only have one more month left!

Making in-person connections with others is a priority for Big Lake Online.

Creating Connections Online

Zooms [National Pet Day]

Calling all furry friends!

We celebrated National Pet Day with our pets.

We learned the name, age, interests, and what makes each of the unique.

BL Online students spent time learning about the needs of pets this year, so it was great to be able to talk about that and make real-life connections.

Who would ever think a fish could be on Zoom?

The cat, Nugget, was on the move!

We even got to meet a white, Great Pyrenees that weighs 120lb. He was so sweet.

Upcoming Dates

April 23 MCA Testing Grades 3-5

May 27 No School

May 30 Last Day of School

Nugget, on National Pet Day. The kids get excited when they see a pet make a Zoom appearance.

This is a first! A fish on Zoom for National Pet Day.

Our pets need food, water, shelter, and our time.

It was fun to learn about the solar eclipse!

One of our families was able to actually experience it!
