A Short Wintry Week of Learning!
This week our normal schedule of virtual learning continues on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday with our morning zoom and learning lab reading groups zooming in the afternoon. On Thursday, February 11 the district has made this an asynchronous day for all students. ( See Superintendent’s letter to the community for more details.) The students will be completing assignments from their weekly Benchmark Packet independently on that day. Friday, February 12- Monday, February 15 is Mid Winter Break. There is no school or zooming on those days. We will be back to our virtual learning and morning zoom with afternoon learning lab reading groups by zoom on Tuesday, February 16. I hope all second grade students enjoy their Mid Winter Break.

Schedule For This Week
Learning Labs
Learning labs are still happening by zoom in the afternoon! Please make sure you know your child’s day and time. I really appreciate your help in making sure they are on zoom on time and they have their books ready so we can start reading right away. This is your child’s chance to practice their reading strategies in a small group, reading books on their level.
Epic Books
Over 3278 books have been read on Epic books by my students since we began school! This has totaled over 393 hours of reading! I am so proud of my students! Remember, if you want to read into the evening (after 4:00pm) on Epic books you need to respond to the email invite that I sent to you. This will allow you to read a selection of books for free in the evening. Epic books is usually only free during school hours. Let me know if you need me to resend the invitation to you. Yousef Alsaray is our Top Reader of the Week! Congratulations! Great job! Keep on reading!
Zearn
Make sure you are logging into Zearn and keeping up with your math practice. Lyla Tanana is our Top Mathematician of the Week! Congratulations!
Kids Club and Child Care for Dearborn Public Schools Parents
A message from Mr. Short
Morning Haigh Community,
In preparation for the Hybrid Model, I wanted to share out the google document below that provides registration information for Kids Club and Childcare. As mentioned in my video yesterday, I am hoping to let families know within the next week if they are an “A-Family(in person on Monday and Thursday)” or a “B-Family(in person on Tuesday and Friday). I know that this will help with planning ahead for your families. Please see the linked document below that will provide some background information on these 2 programs.
