Parents,
We're starting to settle into more of a routine this week, which is always a welcome sight. Please read the following items carefully and let me know if you have any questions!
*Seesaw - Seesaw posts show unedited work. This is done intentionally. This will show you exactly where they are at academically. It is also a great conversation starter. For example, we posted a sheet this week that had the ABCs listed on the side the paper, but not every letter had something written next to it. Ask your child what they were doing for that activity. Thank you for the great feedback you all are giving on their work!
*Invest - The Invest link has been added to the "Helpful Links" section of the blog. You can click on that link to donate to our Invest campaign. Please click on the link and choose "I support PPE, but cannot give at this time" if you are unable to contribute right now. It will still count towards our participation goal that will earn the kiddos a popsicle party.
*Tiger Time - Tiger Time will begin August 29th for all students. Some students may go to a different room for instruction during that time. You will receive a letter in your child's Friday folder if they will be going to a different class. Tiger Time is from 2:10 - 2:55.
*Sorting Hat Quiz - Some students asked if I would send you all the Pottermore Sorting Hat quiz. This is a more accurate and detailed quiz that determines what house best fits their character traits. That link has been added to the "Helpful Links" section of the blog. They will need one-on-one assistance with this quiz, which is why I didn't use it in the classroom.
*Class Link - I have also added Class Link to the "Helpful Links" section of the blog. This program replaced Clever as the portal to all of the programs available to MNPS students. They can use Class Link to access, I-Ready, Lexia, Xtramath, Brainpop Jr., and many other helpful programs. You should have received a QR code and an informational strip of paper in their Friday folder last week.
Contact me if you have any questions. Have a great rest of the week!
