We have been eagerly preparing...
And tomorrow's the day! To be Zoom ready, prepare a space where your child can easily sit and engage with the computer. We love to see those smiling faces sitting tall, centering themselves in their spot! In addition, have a pencil, sticky notes, and a notebook nearby. Don't forget their item that brings them joy! We know that there will be glitches along the way, and we are prepared to engage our growth mindset -- MISTAKES MEAN WE ARE LEARNING! Teachers will be online with kids in small groups or lessons from 8-1 daily, so know that if we don't respond right away via email, that's why. We have office hours daily from 2-3 to assist you. We will be checking our email at that time and getting back to you, but we also will be available at that time via Zoom. Use our same class zoom links during that time. The first week we will be getting the kids familiar and more autonomous with BLEND, schedules, and Zoom. We will spend a lot of time building community and a culture that focuses on learning. ELA this week engages us as active readers and writers. We will have FUN with books and discussion. Getting to know our Reading and Writing Identities is foundational. In math, we will discover how math is all around us. Numbers are dynamic, and can be represented and talked about in so many fabulous ways. We will examine and practice Netiquette in social studies this week, as that is a key piece in our virtual learning experience. Morning and Closing Meetings will be our time to get to know our entire 4th grade family. We are so grateful for each and every one of you. We will be writing a blog post here weekly to share learning, photos, and the goings on during our time together this year. We encourage you to subscribe via email at the button below to have it sent directly to your inbox. Happy final day of summer!
