Mathews 4th Grade
March 16-20
What should we be doing at home?
Week of 3/16-3/20
We are incredibly sad that we will not be back in the classroom this week, but we do understand that caution is necessary under the current circumstances.
Our 4th grade team will work this week to address plans and academic lessons for when we return to the classroom to ensure that we are on track for state testing. In the meantime, please help your student stay focused on their learning.
For this week, I will expect students are completing normal homework assignments:
Read for at least 25 minutes complete the weekly reading log. If they do not have their reading log with them, I am attaching a digital copy that may be printed at home for completion this week.
Complete at least 7 DreamBox lessons. DreamBox is available through the PISD web desk.
Students may also complete the following:
Words Their Way lesson assignments via Google Classroom. They will need to sign into Google with their PISD account to access the Google classroom.
Work on Freckle, available through PISD web desk.

Technology Tips:
The following are some tips on accessing technology from home:
Students can log into Google using their PISD account. This is separate from just accessing the PISD webdesk.
a. To log in to Google, click on the sign in icon located in the top right corner.
b. Username is the student’s standard PISD username with @mypisd.net added. For example, Jane Doe’s standard username is jane.doe.1, so her Google login would be jane.doe.1@mypisd.net
c. Password is the student’s standard password from school (4Mav#xxxxxx) The xxxxxx stands for their Student ID number.
Students can log into PISD Webdesk at http://webdesk.pisd.edu/
a. Choose the PISD Network Login option
b. Username is the student’s standard PISD username. For example, Jane Doe’s standard username is jane.doe.1
c. Password is the student’s standard password from school (4Mav#xxxxxx) The xxxxxx stands for their Student ID number.
If you use an iPad or other Apple product, you will need to down load the Google App to access the PISD sites.
