Elementary Report Cards for Marking Period 3 are currently being processed and will be available to parents in ParentConnect, Monday, April 6, 2020. Student marks were calculated based on work assigned through March 12.

Following is some information on how parents can access report card data in MIStar ParentConnect. Please note that if you have more than one child, you should be able to see data for all your children and you do not need separate logins for the different schools (if your children attend more than one school).

How do parents login to ParentConnect? To login to ParentConnect, parents need their PIN and password; this is how it is obtained: Parents go to the Dearborn Schools’ website (dearbornschools.org) and then the ParentConnect link. If they don’t know the login info, they click (Need Your Login Information) link and it will prompt them to enter their email address (as provided to the school and entered in MIStar), and then click Submit. This process emails them their PIN and Password. After logging in, click on “report card marks” module.

EPIC is now available – EPIC is a new website to find books and videos for kids. I have been told it is like Netflix for books. I had a lot of fun searching it last night. I have added it to Clever on iLearn. The class code is in Google classroom.

Teddy Bear Scavenger hunt – Teddy bears are popping up in windows across the country and students are having to stay at home. Go for a walk and see if you spot any teddy bears in your neighborhood. I have one up at my house! Here are two articles about it:

Stay home, stay safe! I hope you all are healthy and safe!! Enjoy your spring break!

Google Meet – It was great to see everyone today at our Google Video chat. I was so happy to have 21 students show up! I was only missing 4, 21, 23, and 25. I have made videos to explain what you missed. Please watch the videos and let me know if you have questions:

Where to do I find the new list of work for home?

How do we find the websites we use video

How do I add my new iLearn classes?

Star of the Week – I would like to start up Star of the Week again to finish up the kids who did not get a chance yet. I believe it is Siham’s turn. Instead of making a poster of pictures about your life, please make us a Google slide presentation that I can share with the class. Insead of bringing in show and tell, please make us a video to share of your show and tell. You can also make a video to share your favorite book. Please have your parents write us a letter telling us what makes you so wonderful and special to them.

Next week is spring break – starting at the end of the day we are on break. You do not need to do any online school if you don’t want. If you want to go online I suggest you go to fun website like BrainPop, Encyclopedia Britannica, or GoNoodle. Get outside and take a walk, play in your yard, just remember about social distancing.

Social Studies Class – I am in the process of creating the new social studies class. IT IS NOT READY TO USE. Do not do any work in it yet. I just wanted you to know how to find it when it was ready. I will be hiding it this week so that I can continue to work on it. You may add it now, or after spring break when we start using it.

Have a GREAT break! Have fun and stay safe and healthy!!
