Dear Parents,Here are a few things that will change after Spring Break:
- We will be required to take attendance during our morning meetings at 9:00. If your child isn’t able to attend the morning meeting and do their online work, we will mark them absent. If they miss the morning meeting, but are able to watch the recordings and complete the required work at a later time, please email us to let us know and we will go in and fix the attendance.
- Teachers have been advised not to post our class meeting links and/or codes on our blog. Rather, we will post the links for students to access our class meetings in our Google Classroom. Your student should already have access, but if not, use Class Code: 2ecysih (You only have to do this once. After that, when you click on “classroom”, you will see our class name: Mrs. Knight’s Class 2019-2020). Watch this tutorial for help: How to access Google classroom
- We will start using Zoom instead of Google Meets for our daily video conferences. On Monday, 4/6, log into Google Meet, just like normal. Mrs. Knight will then help the students transition to Zoom. Zoom requires a download. You are welcome to go ahead and download Zoom to your students’ computer/tablet this weekend.
- We will begin working with students in
small groups for Language Arts Instruction and to check their math proficiency. We will post the time on our blog that each group needs to login to Zoom. Meetings will last about 15-20 minutes. Thanks for all your help making sure your child is on at their correct time!
Library and Coding Class
Mrs. Anderson would like to meet with our first grade class Monday mornings at 8:30 to share some stories and see how everyone is doing. I think she may even already have some stories in the google classroom This class would only be for about 10-15 minutes. To access her class, she has asked us to join her Google Classroom. Her class code is: sfbroz4
Mrs. Fischer would also like to do a coding class once a week for about 30 minutes. She would like to do it the same day and time each week. We will be doing our coding class every Wednesday at 12:00. Her Google class code is: ro3fndaPlease do what you can to ensure your student attend these online classes.
I have shared a link that shows how to do this below. Just follow the steps. It’s really easy.
