In order to take advantage of digital learning opportunities, all students participate in class discussions at the beginning of the year.
We all agree to think F.A.S.T. with technology and provide examples based on their experiences from our first year with a device that every student cares for throughout the year.
Thanks to PSF for funding our trial of Seesaw for Schools in our K-2 classrooms.
Many of our classrooms and resource specialists are using Seesaw The Learning Journal as a resource.
Families can use the Seesaw app as a way to have conversations at home about your child's learning. Each teacher has a private code they can share with you so you have access only to your child's learning journal. Your teacher partner may opt to have a password-protected class blog instead.
Download the app in the App Store or from Google Play Store from your Android device. Don’t have a smartphone? Sign up on a computer at app.seesaw.me.
It's free and keeps you connected to your child's learning all year.
We embed the CHCCS curriculum within classroom settings, in addition to mini-lessons in the Media Center, because lessons about staying focused, respecting copyright and the work of others, and staying safe online are best applied in the contexts in which learning opportunities arise.
North Carolina Information and Technology Essential Standards overlap much of what is integrated in general classrooms because we are a 1:1 digital learning environment. As needed and co-planned, special lessons are taught by our Media Specialist, Mrs. Akos, and our Digital Learning specialist, Ms. Mazur.
