1st Grade Week 6
Directions and Links
Weekly Learning Plan
WEEK 6
April 27 - May 1
Pathblazer Tips
Please make sure that as part of your child's daily literacy time, they are working through their assignments in the Pathblazer app. This needs to be for 15 - 20 minutes a day. If you notice that your child is getting the same lessons over and over; please make sure your student is:
- using Chrome to access the app
- exiting properly (see picture)
- actively working for the 15 - 20 minutes
- passing the checkpoints (quizzes) with a 70% or more?
If all of those things are happening, the program will continue to move them along.
IMPORTANT!
Please make sure you are checking the Google Classroom and Weekly plans. As fun as it is to do Dreambox and other computer games, please also don't forget to read the leveled books we have assigned to your child in HMH and the word sorts assigned through Pearson.
Go Guardian
All of the 1st grade teachers are using a program called Go Guardian. This allows us to see your child's screen if they are using a PISD issued Chromebook. We love to see them working! We also use this tool to troubleshoot if a problem arises. However, we also see lots of students using YouTube...we've sent a few reminders about making sure they're completing classwork first! If you see a chat bubble pop up in the bottom corner, click on it to chat with your teacher!

Independent Learning Opportunities
If your first grader needs more independent and/or extra things to work on, below are a few apps that should already be on his/her webdesk. We have used these throughout the school year so they should be familiar with them. If you do not see them on their webdesk, simply click the + in the top left corner and type the app you're looking for in the search bar. You will then select "add" and select the X in the right corner to go back to the main page of your child's webdesk.
Optional Extension Activities - MORE activities added!
