Happy First Day of School!

Sunday, August 30, 2020

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share some information with you about our first day of school and what will be expected of students:

On Monday, August 31st, there will be a chance for students to pick up their materials that they need for online learning. Upper el will pick up their materials on the upper el playground. Only the child and ONE parent should be coming to pick up their things in order to adhere to the safety guidelines. If you cannot attend the times for pickup, please contact the office.

There are the times for pickup:
(Last names A-E) 9:00-10:00
(Last names F-M) 10:00-11:00
(Last names N-Z) 11:00-12:00

While students are not picking up materials, there will be a couple activities posted on Google Classroom for them to work on. I sent a Google Classroom invitation to your child’s gmail account. If you cannot join that way, our class code to join is: thi3en7
Make sure to be logged into a student account to join the class!

Here are the activities for students that will be posted on Google Classroom for Monday:
1. Watch my introduction video I have posted (you can learn more about me and I also explain the next activity)
2. Complete the All About Me Slide (so we can learn more about you!)
3. Watch my video of me reading aloud First Day Jitters
4. Comment below the assignment telling me how you feel on your first day of school!

The video links and activities will be on Google Classroom. I will also post the video links on here too. Make sure you are on a student account to watch the videos (otherwise they may not give you access). You can only access the All About Me Slide activity on Google Classroom.

If for some reason these links do not work, just find them on Google Classroom and they should be just fine!

I will be at the school for most of the day Monday. If you need help or want to ask me something, please email me at hullj@dearbornschools.org
I will try to get back to you right away!!

I am also going to attach our calendar for the rest of the week, so you can look ahead and know what is going on! (This calendar was also sent in the email I sent out)

Last but not least, we will be meeting on Zoom as a class for school on Tuesday. The school day will be 8:55-12:00 the first week. The first week is a lot about community building and expectations, so please prepare that your child will be on Zoom with our class for most of that time (given breaks and independent work time will also be within that time frame).

Again, I am available to answer any questions that you might have! I am excited to start the school year and I can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow!! -Mrs. Hull
