Good morning families~
Just a reminder I will be meeting with Group A- today at 11:00 a.m. Please have your child check Group A’s Google Classroom, on which materials to have ready.
If you have not enrolled your child yet in I-Learn course, please do so. I emailed those families who have to enroll their child with the steps. So far, I have 18 students enrolled. Attached is the schedule for this week with the enrollment code. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1axYpgAhxZTpJ7DPnmB6zxHxLHLK5mPxtTQ5xC4ICVc8/edit?usp=sharing
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Have a great day!
Best,
Mrs. Currie

Good morning-
Happy National Nurses Day! Your work especially right now, is not unnoticed! Forever grateful!
New assignments posted, in ELA, Math, Science and I posted a little something extra for the students to do in the Writer’s Workshop classroom. It is an announcement.
The Math assignment may take longer, as it is two lessons combined. With that I plan on giving EXIT Tickets for Lesson 10 & 11, Friday. The mid-module assessment will be postponed.
I hope those of you with last names- A-M were able to stop by Lindbergh yesterday to pick up Math materials and ELA books. Today will be the second pickup. Wednesday, May 6 from 1-3 pm, will be for families whose last name starts with N-Z. The materials will be set up on the South playground (where K-2 lineup).
I am working on having the students participate in live small/whole groups again-next week. On Friday, I will send a doc of the schedule, & instructions for students on how to join Big Blue Button. For those who already participated last week, will just need to pay attention to the day & time.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a beautiful day!
Mrs. Currie
Materials pick up today on the South playground..

Teacher Appreciation Week Virtual Style 2020
Dear Lindbergh Families, never in a million years would I have thought we would be where we are today….but we are here. Hopefully all of you are doing well and your students are surviving the home schooling (as well as you). I know that this time is an unprecedented one and that on a day to day basis we don’t know what tomorrow will bring. But the one thing that we do have is Hope. Hope for a better tomorrow. At times it is difficult to stay positive but our Lindbergh Families are amazing ones. I have seen so many acts of love and kindness happening continuously in our community and so many others around the world. My goal is to continue that for our Teacher Appreciation Week.
Beginning Monday May 6th- May 10th is Teacher Appreciation Week. This year we are going to improvise and show our teachers how amazing they truly are. Often times, we take things for granted….life, toilet paper, clorox wipes, leaving the house, smiles, hugs, friends, family….teachers. We may have always thought they were amazing, but never truly knew the extent, until we walked a day in their shoes. And we are really only walking a small path compared to the marathon they are running right now to provide our students with an exemplary online schooling opportunity. It is an opportunity, even though it may be a challenge, because so many do not have the resources or knowledge that our community has been blessed with.
Our goal is to show our staff that even in quarantine, they are amazing and we love and appreciate them. We want them to know their countless hours and challenges overcome, have not gone unnoticed. We want them to know that their Lindbergh Community supports them no matter what!!!
Monday through Friday we hope to raffle off at least one donated gift each day. If anyone has any items they would like to donate please get in touch with me asap.
Schedule May 4th- May 8th
Monday: “How Does Your Teacher Help Fill Your Mind?” Send in photos of your students, a pic of a letter/art work/drawing….that shows how your teachers fill your minds.
Wednesday: “How Does Your Teacher Fill Your Heart/Soul?” Send in a photo of your side walk chalk message to our Lindbergh Staff.
Friday: E- Gift cards will be sent to all of our staff from the PTA to help fill their bellies. We will share a special slide show for our students.
“How Can WE Fill Your Bellies?”
EMAIL PHOTOS TO Flyerspta@gmail.com
Homeroom Parents typically help guide each individual classroom in different activities/gifts/plans, but this year we realize that many families may be on very limited budgets as well as time constraints with our at home schooling. It will be up to the HRP’s should they choose to do any type of group gift/activity. We ask that the safety of all parties involved be taken into consideration, as we maintain social distancing, as well as respecting the privacy of our staff. Things like an e-gift card can easily be sent via email with the staff emails I will provide. Photos of hand made items or special letters to teachers can also be sent via email.
Please do not feel limited or obligated during this very difficult time to do anything that your family is not up to. Our PTA, staff, students and families understand that there are many challenges that vary from family to family and person to person. Our biggest Hope is that we all remain healthy and safe and are able to return to our Lindbergh Family stronger and more grateful than ever. Below is a list of names and emails of our Lindbergh Staff for reference.
If you have any questions or need help, please email me at ddoliveriolewis@gmail.com or text at 313-580-8020
Kind Regards, Danielle

Good morning! New assignments posted in Google Claasroom!
Please make sure to read the week at a glance, and sign up for your child’s 1:1 meet up! The Sign- Up Genius is linked in the Week at a Glance. https://docs.google.com/document/d/13XYiE2R09nE5Y-s_3Cco4dLqw1whYkz1dtFUt6oSBHA/edit?usp=sharing
Below is a message from Ms. Tiba. The only materials available for my class are the Math Module 5-books, which we have been using digitally, and the new reading books for ELA (which also are available digitally). If you feel your child would benefit by having these materials, versus continuing to use digitally, feel free to pick them up! Her message describes when and how the process will take place. If you have any questions, just let me know.
Dear Parents,
This week we will be offering a pick-up of some instructional material your child’s teacher has prepared. The prepared material will vary from class to class and your child’s teacher will let you know what you will need to pick up, if anything. To avoid large crowds and provide an opportunity for families with multiple children, the pick up will happen based on the first letter of your last name.
On Tuesday, May 5 from 1-3 pm, the pick-up will be for families whose last name starts with the letter A-M. And on Wednesday, May 6 from 1-3 pm, will be for families whose last name starts with N-Z. The materials will be set up on the South playground (where K-2 lineup).
The material will be placed on carts by grade level and teacher name. We ask that parents come alone with a mask, stand in line until they are asked to come forward and collect their children’s materials from the carts. We kindly request that you just grab the top book and do not shuffle through them and as always practice safe distancing. There will be cones and tape on the floor to also help guide the flow.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
Stay safe,
Ms. Tiba
Have a great day everyone!
Best,
Mrs. Currie

In regards to the new “live” session platform, called the Big Blue Button, that the district is using now. I tried it with one group this past week. I decided to put it on hold for the moment. So moving forward for next week, I will be setting up 1:1 meetings with your child. Please look out for a Google Form, to set up your appointment time. If you have any questions, please send me an email. Thanks again for your patience with this.
Have a beautiful day & weekend! Enjoy the sunshine!
Best,
Mrs. Currie
