In-Person Learning Lab Schedule

Hi Parents , I’m posting the link to learning lab schedule beginning this Thursday. Your child will come 3 times before the Hybrid schedule begins on March 1. These days align with their hybrid schedule days. Again, these are not mandatory, so if you can’t get your child there on these days/times, no worries. But, I will not be able to switch around times/days for this. I will also post this schedule on Schoology under the main course.

Peek at Week 23

I hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and is staying warm!! Here is the schedule for this week. Please remember to take a look at the reminders I sent you on Dojo last week. Here is a recap of what I sent:

  • Tomorrow-Asynch Day- NO LIVE Zooms. Please look on the schedule at the YOU DO part to know what your child should be turning in for that day.
  • Wednesday-Live Zoom at 9am
  • Thursday- Live Zoom 9am- IN PERSON learning labs begin in the afternoon. I will be sending the learning lab schedule out tomorrow, along with an email of what days your child will attend school once the hybrid schedule starts on March 1.
  • Friday-Live Zoom 9 am- IN PERSON learning labs in afternoon.

Your child will come to learning labs 3 times before hybrid schedule begins, for an hour each time. These are not mandatory, so if you are unable to get your child here on the assigned day/time please do not stress.

I hope everyone has a great week ahead and stays safe with all the snow headed this way!

Peek at Week 22

Happy Superbowl Sunday! I hope everyone has stayed warm and had a relaxing weekend. DRA testing is complete so we will be back to our normal schedule, including labs this week. Please note that Thursday of this week is an Asynchronous Day-due to district wide vaccine appointments for teachers and staff.

Also, we have no school on Friday and Monday due to Mid-Winter break-so two short weeks ahead 🙂 I will have a pick up day tomorrow from 1-2 pm. If you aren’t able to make it during that time frame, it’s ok, materials will be left by the front office. We will be doing a Valentines Writing and craft so if you could please make it to Haigh by Tuesday of next week.

Thank you and I hope everyone has a nice week ahead. Here is a link to the schedule.

Peek at Week 21

Happy Sunday! I hope the kids were able to get out and enjoy the snow today! Below is the schedule for this week. We will be reviewing the end of Module 4 for Math and taking a test this Friday. We will also not have Learning Labs this Tuesday/Thursday so I can finish up DRA’s. I will be messaging you this week sometime to set up a time with your child, so please be on the lookout for my message on Class Dojo.

There will also be another pick up this week. Most likely on Friday. I will keep you posted for that as well. Report cards should be ready to be viewed tomorrow, I will make a post tomorrow with directions on how to view. The office did mail them out on Friday though, so you should be receiving them soon at your house. If you have any questions regarding it, please message me on Dojo.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Peek at Week 20

Happy Sunday families! I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Not too much going on for this week. Tomorrow is a 1/2 day of school, so the kids won’t have any ELA assignments. They will have their Math problem set to complete but I’m planning to give them time in the morning. We will be using quite a few pages from the packet I made, including the contruction paper for a craft- so I’m hoping all the kids have that now for the start of this week.

Again, I will be messaging you privately on Dojo over the next month, trying to get kids in for DRA testing with me. The days and times vary, so there will ne no sign-up genius for this.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate! Here is the schedule, also posted on Schoology always 🙂

Peek at Week 19

Happy Monday! I hope everyone enjoyed their day off in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 🙂

We are now in week 19 of virtual learning. NWEA Reading is done thanks to all of you! I know it wasn’t an easy task and it was stressful on your child, but they did great and it’s over with until Spring 🙂 I will begin to DRA test your child starting this week. Testing will go into February, as I will only test a few students a couple days a week. I don’t want to pause Learning Labs or disrupt our morning routine too often. I will be messaging you on Dojo to see if a day/time works best. All your child has to do is log back onto Zoom with me for about 15-20 minutes and read to me.

Learning Labs will continue this week and the cardmarking ends! Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great week!

Schedule Week 19:

Peek at Week 18

Hi families!

I hope everyone enjoyed the little bit of sunshine we had this weekend, it sure does brighten my mood 🙂

Below is the schedule for this week. Just a reminder that NWEA testing for Reading will continue on Tuesday and Thursday- please check what day you signed up for so we can ensure your child is tested. For those who didn’t finish on Friday, your child will join in on Tuesday’s session beginning at 12:30.

There will be another pick up this week. We are due for our next ELA foldable, January journal pages, and some winter activities. I will keep you informed of the pick up times and days- but I’m planning to have everything ready to go for TH/F.

I hope everyone has a great week and as always, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

NWEA Testing- Reading

Hi Parents,

We were notified yesterday that 2nd grade does not have to test in Math for the winter session, only Reading (Read by 3rd grade law). We will begin tomorrow and test through next week. We will have 3 days to choose from, each day with an hour and a half slot. If your child needs more time, we can reschedule for another day to finish.

For your child’s testing time, they will log into Zoom (our usual link) and I will provide detailed instructions with how to get logged in. Once logged in, it is important that your child has an adult/older sibling/ parent near. I will stay on Zoom and be available for questions, but it will be tough since I cannot see their screen. They may need your guidance and assistance. Again, before the testing session starts, I will explain and go into further detail about expectations and directions for taking this at home.

Please choose a day and time that you can be near them for assistance. If none of these days or times work for you, please contact me. Thanks in advance for your help in testing at home!

Here is the sign-up genius link.

Peek at Week 17

Welcome back and Happy New Year!! I am hoping for a better, brighter, and healthier 2021 for us all, and hopefully a return to school is in our near future 🙂

I hope everyone shared a fun, relaxing, and special time with their loved ones these last 2 weeks. It was refreshing and it flew by, but now we are back to the grind 🙂

We will continue on with Unit 4 for ELA, (same booklet they have) and continue on with Module 4 for Math. We will be completing 2 lessons this week, doing a review, then taking a Mid-Module Assessment. On Friday, we will begin NWEA testing for Math. The 2nd grade team is still trying to work out details as to how testing will look, (it will be virtual), so more details will follow this week with exact directions. Learning Labs will continue this week, we will do Reading and Math.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Here is the schedule for this week:

Peek at Week 16- Holiday Fun

HI families!
We made it to the week before break! I promised the kids this week would be a week of Holiday Fun! On the schedule you’ll see each day is a different “theme” for dressing up. This just adds a little fun to our days- not mandatory! Students will be utilizing the packet I sent home last week as well as Seesaw for most of this week. We will not be using Benchmark for ELA or our Math books. We will still focus on addition and subtraction for Math during Zoom, but will be doing a lot of holiday story problems and their independent work will be from the packet.

We will also have a couple of crafts to do this week, as well as directed drawings. So if you can please make sure your child has white paper, markers or crayons, clue, and a pencil near each day this week 🙂

I hope the kids have a fun week ahead, celebrating the holidays as best as we can on Zoom. I hope all of you have a healthy, safe, and fun Christmas and New Year’s spent with the ones you loved! Almost through 2020, best wishes for a better 2021!

Here is the schedule for this week!
