It was an exciting week in Pirate Country! Teachers were on campus a few days this week to start preparing classrooms and the building for student return. They will return next week to complete classroom setups. We still have an anticipated return date of September 14th.
In addition to our campus newsletter additional district communication went out this afternoon. The following communication went was sent out: Superintendent email. In the email the it was noted that the London ISD Return to Campus Plan and Parent Survey are have been uploaded to the www.londonisd.net homepage.
If you did not receive, please contact our school secretary Mrs. Johnson, to check the email information we have on file from registration. djohnson@londonisd.net.
The link to the London ISD Return to Campus plan and link to the parent survey can also be located below in this newsletter.
Thank you for your patience as we navigate a new resource, Bright Thinker. Just for clarification purposes, Bright Thinker is a supplement to instruction. Students were introduced to the platform with a couple of core subjects this week. Mrs. Schultz(music) and Ms. Alexander(art) also wanted to explore the program and loaded an assignment as well. Initially, the plan was to use Bright Thinker as our main platform for communication and uploading teacher instruction, much like Google Classroom. Due to the delay in rolling out the platform and student's comfort level with navigating Google Classroom, Google Classroom will remain the main source of location for assignments and announcements from teachers.
Teachers will use the Bright Thinker program along with other district adopted curriculum such as Into Reading, Pearson Science, Think Central-Go Math, Studies Weekly and Raz-Plus to provide instruction and lessons to cover standards required for specific grade levels.
Please continue to have students log in through Classlink since all usernames and passwords are saved on the single sign-on platform.
It is strongly encouraged for students to complete the one lesson a week of Art and Music.
P.E. lessons are provided daily and encouraged to be completed at least three times a week.
Beginning next week, Art and Music will have lessons through Google Classroom. This week's Bright Thinker lesson was practice for program usage.
If you have any concerns or celebrations to share, please don't hesitate to email me at lmaldonado@londonisd.net.
Sincerely,
Lori Maldonado
