Teachers,

Around December 14th, K-3 teachers should've received an email from Learning A-Z saying that your accounts have been activated. If there are any 4th-5th teachers that feel you have some students that could benefit from the program, please let me know and I can pair you with a K-3 class. In the email it will have your username and password to log in. You have acccess to two different sites and they offer two different resources for your classrooms.

Reading A-Z http://www.readinga-z.com

• A variety of leveled texts, reading lessons, decodable books, reading worksheets and assessments that are aligned to Common Core.
• Fluency passages to improve reading rate, accuracy, and expression.
  
• Phonological awareness and phonics lessons, flashcards, and worksheets
• Vocabulary Books, graphic organizers, word sorts and other vocabulary resources.

RAZ-Kids http://www/raz-kids.com (iPad App in self service)

• Students can listen to ebooks for modeled fluency, read books for practice, and then record themselves reading so teachers can monitor progress (teachers have access to listen to their recordings)
• Every leveled ebook has an accompanying eQuiz to test reading comprehension,
• Books include Spanish, Songs, Poetry and more
• Parents can download the app and students can practice at home
• Students have access to "RAZ Rocket" which motivates students about reading and strengthens the school-to-home connection

Teachers, I will be staying after school Tuesday, January 17th until 4:30 if you need help setting up your class rosters or to give you a tutorial of the program. Please let me know in advance if you will be coming.

We are currently able to Pilot Splash Math for the remainder of the year, until June 30th. Splash math is awesome personalized learning app for students in K-5 needing extra practice with math. It also provides placement tests for the students to make sure their needs are being met in math. The student app is already in Self-Service

On January 5th, you should've received an email from Dan Jacob with your username and password already set up. To get started with Splash Math you will have to:

• Log on Splash Math- Visit splashmath.com and sign is as teacher. ("Sign In" button is on the top right)
• Create Classroom and add Students
• Download and Distribute Student logins (if you already have login cards in your classroom, just add it there)

• Start by assigning practice to students.

I have attached the PDF tutorial to help with the steps above. I am also available to help set up your classes and answer any questions. I am able to meet as a grade level or meet on a individual basis.
