Adventures in 3rd Grade!
August 31-September 4
A Few Things...
- Reminder: No school Monday, September 7 in celebration of Labor Day. Enjoy!
- Thank you for your patience and understanding as we get this new school year underway. I appreciate your tolerance as I learn the new tech required for teaching remotely. And a BIG THANK YOU to all of the caring adults helping behind the scenes at home. YOU ARE AMAZING!
- Mrs. Ladage is a paraprofessional who assists in our classroom in case you hear her name mentioned by your student.
- For the next few weeks, students may not have an afternoon ZOOM session. I will be assessing individual student's reading ability. Students will still have asynchronous activities to complete.
- I have removed the Read to Self button on my website. Students have access to RAZ kids and ARC bookshelf through the Symbaloo (the site with clickable tiles that pops up when you open the internet.) It's faster to get to their sites through the Symbaloo. We are waiting on the tech department to add names and passwords to these sites. As soon as passwords are set, we will practice finding good fit books.
- Students may access extra PE, art and music activities by visiting their Google Classroom for that subject. Some lessons may be live at 2:00, some lessons may be accessible anytime.
- Please remind students to keep their learning space organized to ensure they can find their supplies quickly.
- The students were awesome this week! We got to know each other a little bit and they worked hard! I'm lucky to work with this group!
