Remote Learning Plans
On April 6, our district will be rolling out remote learning plans by grade level. You can find a link to those plans on our district and school website. Here is what you do:
- Click on Remote Learning Plans which can be found on the right side of the screen -or- click on "For Families".
- Once on the Remote Learning Plan site, scroll down until you find the grade level you would like to access.
- Once you access the grade level site, you will find directions and expectations.
Remember that these are choice boards. Please encourage your child to participate in doing at least 3 activities per board (including the middle square). Here is a short video that walks you through how to find the learning plans. Thanks to Mr Diedrick from Kinsner for making it. Paper copies of materials will be available at the front doors of Whitney on Monday, April 6th for those who don't have access to technology.
The purpose of these learning plans is to keep your child learning during this time and reduce gaps in knowledge so that they are prepared for next year school year. We understand that this is not what learning would like like in the four walls of a traditional classroom. The Remote Learning Lessons are approximately 20 (maybe a bit longer for higher grades) minutes in length, as we can not expect our children to sit in front of computer or work on one activity for hours.
If you need assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to either me or your child's teacher. We are all in this together.
