Week 4 Results…BEST week so far!
Parents, you will notice that I will be uploading a seesaw activity each day (5 total). Please make sure your child is completing them so they are able to receive credit for the online work completed at home. Seesaw is in addition to the 90 minutes of learning each child should be doing everyday:) Thank you for your cooperation and support during this time. It is much appreciated!
LOOK!!!! Google Meets: Next week, I am planning to do an informal meet up with my students on google meets! I will check in, we can say hi to each other and talk!

Few things before our meeting on Monday:
- Please try to join the meeting on a laptop, desktop or Ipad. If you join by phone, you will not be able to see anyone. You will only hear the audio. If you download the Google Meets app, then you should be able to view everyone on your phone.
- I ask that parents are on hand to help your child navigate this program with me until they are familiar with it:) Specifically, I will need the parents to show your child how to MUTE and UNMUTE during our video chats:)
- In order to view our whole class, you will need to make sure you have the Google Meet Grid View. You can download this view on google chrome.
- I am NOT an expert at google meets. I am very new at this and will be learning with all of you. Please be patient and understanding during this trial time…I appreciate you <3
