Hello!!
Thank you for Guest Teaching for me today. I hope you enjoy your time at Wysong. Today is a DAY 1. My daily schedule is posted on the right.
I will expand upon each time frame in the page below.
I will be including (embedding) videos of instruction for each grade level lesson on this site. Feel free to show those videos to students if you wish -- or you may watch them during prep time to become acquainted with the lesson and then teach it yourself. Whatever is easiest and most comfortable to you.
Students will access the activities and sites in their usual ways (Google Classroom or bookmarks on their devices). Here is a quick link to my CS Landing Page: WYSONG CS PAGE
I hope you have a great day at Wysong!
8:50 - 8:55 - Front Lobby Duty
At 8:50, when the arrival bell rings, you will monitor students walking toward the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade pods. Leave the Computer Science room and go to the left. I usually stand between the art room window and the library window. Students will be walking toward you from the cafeteria, front door, and the music/PE wing. Make sure they are walking and being respectful. At 8:55, you are free to return to the Computer Science room to begin the day.
10 Minute Timer for Typing Club - Grades 2, 3, 4, and 5
All Students in grades 2, 3, 4, and 5 begin each lesson with 10 minutes of keyboarding practice using the TYPING CLUB program (found in the Student Portal). Students enter the class, sit down quietly, and then begin keyboarding. Remind them to use the keyboard covers (found on the tables). This is routine and they should do this without much intervention. You may use (and reuse) this timer for each grade if you like -- or there is a time embedded on each grade level page (WYSONG CS PAGE) . If you are having trouble and can't get the video above to play? Use this MyVRSpot Link: 10 Minute Timer

Start with 10 minutes of Keyboarding with Typing Club (Timer above)
After Keyboarding they should work on completing all Code.org work. They have links available to them on their second grade page (accessible through their Google Classroom). They may use the 'ducks' and ask neighbors for help if needed. They also have access to a very helpful GENIALLY doc that gives pretty good hints. Getting a 'majority' done is more important to me than struggling the entire hour on completing all. Use your best judgement if the 'vibe' is getting frustrated.

3:38 - 3:45 - Dismissal Duty at KDG entrance
After 2nd grade dismissal, walk down the hallway toward the KDG grade pod (the hallway that goes past the office and beyond). At the end of the hall, exit LEFT out the doors and stand near the curb. ( SEE MAP if confused ) Monitor students as they walk toward the carlane, or down the sidewalk towards home. Students should not be riding bikes or scooters on school grounds. At 3:45, you are done.
