Hello Giesinger Families,
Thank you for visiting my page. I hope your family is continuing to do well. Mine has been spending a lot of time outside, baking new and old recipes, and I've been learning a lot about new technology. Please use this page as a resource for things that might come up for you and your family the next couple of weeks. I am always here to help. You can contact me through the Google Form link below or by email abarton@conroeisd.net.

Some Fun!!!!
Each week there will be a Weekly Challenge. The first 2 families/student(s) to email me and answer the questions below correctly, will win a prize.
1. What is something new you have learned to do in the last couple of weeks?
2. What is something you have had to be flexible about since you have been working on school at home?
3. What is something new you have tried since working on school work at home?
Learning to be Flexible/Open Minded
Have you had to share a computer with your brother or sister to complete your school work, wait until someone in your home is finished watching their tv show before you can watch yours, or even wait until someone is finished taking a shower before you can take yours? It's no surprise that some of our routines have completely changed in the last couple of weeks. By the time school let out, your family probably worked like clockwork when it came to morning and evening routines. You have been resilient through these changes and have learned to be flexible or more open minded when things had to change. Even just trying new things is being flexible and open minded. I bet you have tried a new thing or two these last couple of weeks.
If you don't feel like you have flexible or maybe just need a little more help, Keep Reading! The video and information from The Positivity Project on Open Mindness is a great learning tool to help you.
