September 5- Instructional Coach
September 5- Instructional Coach
Welcome back to school! This year is going to be your best year yet. As you go about your continued learning and teaching this year, I would love to help in any way I can. This was shared with new staff at their orientation and I thought it could be great to share with you as well. Here are some ways I can help you this year:
September 12th- Seesaw Updates
September 12th- Seesaw Updates
I hope you all had a fantastic first week of school!
Seesaw is a fantastic way to up your game on parent communication!
Are you an avid Seesaw user, but don't know about all the amazing new functions? There is a new drawing tool is a game-changer that gives you FULL screen drawing on Chromebooks, lets you record while you draw on Chromebooks and offers multipage drawings so that you don't have a need to app smash with Google Slides anymore. Not to mention the undo/redo buttons and the GLOW pen, which is my new favorite!

- All the books have been purchased by Dawn and are in the Pioneer and VV libraries for check out.
- Here are resources for each of the books to do with your classroom.
- At the very base level, this program is a great way to infuse diversity into your class read aloud.
- At a deeper level, you can go beyond the text to work on deeper meaning and critical thinking skills as found in this article.
- Global Read Aloud allows kids from all over the world to experience the same books during the same 6 week period. Connections with other teachers around the world can give your students and an important infusion of global collaboration.

Several people have been asking, "What happens when Classlink works it's magic, but I have the wrong password?"
If this is you or has happened to you, it is an easy fix!
Right click on the app to update password and then edit it.
Also remember that with Classlink, anyone has access to your passwords for every site, so please lock your computer when you walk away from it. To do that, just click Windows key and L at the same time.
