Remote Learning
Dear Parents,
As we make our way through the next three weeks, the fourth grade team is developing a plan to move forward and continue the learning process. The most important part of this time off is that we are not on vacation, but are in a situation where we need to work from home in order to keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible.
Together, all three of us will communicate the same message weekly through Class Dojo. Each week on Monday, we will provide a list of learning expectations. We will provide links to assignments and web sites the students already know and use regularly.
We will be checking in and viewing student progress regularly. If you need to contact any of us, please do so via Class Dojo as well. The same information will be available on the class blogs and through Class Dojo messages.
We are including email and class blog links here.
Thank you for your continued support at home.
