for Students in Grade 6 and Grade 7
Students in Grades 6 and 7 may complete the work in advance of the Blizzard Bag Day or on the actual Blizzard Bag Day. The exception to this is the math assignment which is posted on the actual Blizzard Bag Day.
Your Facilitator will be inviting you to a specific Google Classroom that has copies of all of your work. The document below is for parents to be in the loop.

Blizzard Bag Day 2
for Students in Grade 8
for Students in Grade 8
Students in Grade 8 can do the bottom row of activities at any time prior to the Blizzard Bag Day. The activities on the top row will be shared on the actual Blizzard Bag Day because the activities are assigned based on the content being taught immediately prior to the Blizzard Bag Day. We are calling this "just in time" learning.
Welcome to KRMS Blizzard Bag Central
Blizzard Bag Day-The KRMS Way
The Blizzard Bag Program at KRMS is done a bit differently from the elementary and high school way. Grade 6 and Grade 7 students will continue to use a Game Board with a variety of activities.
New this year, students in Grade 8 will do some of the same Game Board activities, but they will also complete a specific activity for Math, Science, Social Studies and Language Arts. This will allow students in Grade 8 to begin working towards the high school model of "just in time" learning.

School Board Goals
School Board Goals
The KRMS Blizzard Bag Program connects to the School Board Goals. Outlined below is the School Board's Goal 3 which is related to technology. Our program relies heavily on technology and seeks to empower our students to take responsibility for their learning.
Goal 3: KRSD will, through effective integration and utilization employ technology to improve student learning and communication.
Technology is ubiquitous. Through the use of 21st Century technologies, KRSD will engage, educate, and empower students to take responsibility for their learning, cultivate global perspectives, and acquire technology fluencies to thrive in a dynamic future. Students will use technology to construct and apply knowledge, to collaborate, create and share innovative solutions to challenging real world issues.
