Parent Involvement Nights
This year, PRMS has decided to take our Parent Involvement Night's virtual! We would like to host two different activities that would run throughout the second semester. If you are interested in participating, please respond accordingly. We appreciate any and all involvement of our parents and families!
Option 1 - Book Study. In order to continue our districts focus on Literacy, PRMS has decided to engage in a family book study on the book Blended by Sharon M. Draper. Families would read chapters of the book at home, and PRMS Staff would invite you to participate in discussions around the book on zoom four times throughout the second semester.
Option 2 - Math PBL hands on project. To go along with our implementation of a new math curriculum, PRMS would invite families to participate in a project based learning assignment from Illustrative Mathematics! The project would be sent home with instructions, materials, and any lesson paperwork. PRMS staff would host zoom teaching sessions that would mimic a classroom, so that families can see first hand what a lesson structure is like, and be given time to create the design or item for their project.
We are currently looking for your interest in either or both of these activities. Please respond to the questions below so that we can work as a team to continue to build relationships between PRMS and the families we serve.
