Last Week
We had a great time at STEAM stations using our growth mindset. We have been writing about our experiences each Wednesday in our STEAM notebooks.
This Week
We will continue our integrated unit on animal habitats and adaptations in both Reading and during STEAM time. Our focus in reading will be on non-fiction reading comprehension and becoming familiar with non-fiction text features.
Chromebooks
If you are sending your child with a chromebook or considering this as a future option there are a few things we would like you to keep in mind:
When setting up your chromebook, please use your child's district email account which is through Google. It will be with them through high school and allows them access to their Google Apps for Education. The account is already set up with an "S" and their six-digit student number. If you or your child does not remember this number, please ask your child's teacher.
gmail account: S ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ @fsusd.org
password: 8 digit birthdate of your child
If your child is new to the chromebook, please do not set up the homescreen with an additional password. It is hard enough for them to log into devices without having to remember another password.
If at all possible, make sure that Google is the default web search engine and internet home page. It will give them access to their Google Drive and Math curriculum faster and Google has no ads or news headlines on their main page which helps us stay focused when we access the internet. Their are tutorials online on how to do this.
Field Trip
We also NEED parent chaperones in order to make this happen, so please ask your child's teacher for the driver forms or you can get them in the front office. After we have confirmed your information w/ the district we will contact our parent drivers with info.
