June XXXth, MMXVIII
Hon. Dave Eggen, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, New Democratic, Edmonton-Calder
Dear Dave:
For three-quarters of a century & on what would have been her 75th birthday today, Mrs. June C. Koopmans, B. Ed., Classics Illustrated Comics superfan (with my Grandpa Archie) has been our guide, our protector, & our friend! Today marks mom's last birthday appearance for Executive Dissertations. As much as I want to keep having her show off her Afton Elementary School Grade II (2) lesson plans, it is time to let her spirit rest & know that with tea & birthday cake in her memory today that she did one hell of a great job with her time on Earth. Although limited to 68 years, the point is she was here, fighting for students rights to the end!
PLANS
Wednesday, March 1st, 1972:
Gym: Walking, running, sprinting.
Reading: bbd ex on roots, vowels, "oo", "can't."
(have students tell stories of airplane & bus trips using vowels as the main emphasis.)
------
Arithmetic: text P. 134.
Spelling: #23C.
Storytime: Students acting out stories with vowels in groups.
Lunch: Take an injured student from Grade 3 to school nurse before heading to teachers lounge for lunch as his teacher had a family emergency & had to leave school property.
Printing: "Ff", "Gg", "Hh","Ii","Jj."
Language Arts: Add consonants & vowels learned together so as to help students memory recall for trip stories.
------
Enterprise: Students suggest making cardboard & paper cutouts of themselves on their trips. Great as it gets their visual memory cognition going in full gear!

Well, we'll miss her and the Classics Illustrated covers. (On that note, did you notice the price on "The Queen of Spades"? Ten quid! Must be some kind of contemporary reissue.
