Field Park Principal's Update
April 3, 2020
Hello Field Park Families,
This will be an information-packed email, as there are quite a few updates to share after this busy return to e-learning following our Spring Break. I hope this finds you all well, healthy, and searching for (and finding!) the silver linings of this unprecedented "adventure" we're all in!
Read on for some VERY important updates, including a "Virtual Parade" and information about our Virtual Spirit Week next week!
FIELD PARK UPDATES:
Communications about "Phase Two" of E-Learning:
How to Stay Connected with Our Field Park Community:
Virtual Teacher Parade: We miss our students! Check our our Field Park Staff in this "virtual parade" as we wave hello and show how much we miss you!
Morning Announcements FlipGrid: Bookmark this one and click in daily to view our special staff cameos and special announcements for the day! (It will also be linked in my daily attendance reminders from here on out!)
Read-Alouds FlipGrid: If you haven't taken a peek at this collection of read-alouds by our Field Park Staff with your kiddos, give it a look - it's heartwarming, and a great chance to share some of our favorite books together.
PE Padlet Challenges: All students, parents, and staff are welcome and encouraged to add posts about your health and wellness pursuits during this challenging time -- it's great to see photos as we all keep movin'!
