Mrs. Namba's Narwhals

Some tips for getting ready for 2nd grade:

*Have your child practice washing and drying his/her hands thoroughly.

*Teach your child how to properly put on, wear, and take off a face mask.

*Have your child practice typing his/her Google username. Google usernames at Excel are the first initial of your first name plus your last name. (If that username is already taken, then it will be your full first name plus your last name.) For example, our class pet, Nori Narwhal, would be nnarwhal@excel-academy.org. Her brother Nick Narwhal would be nicknarwhal@excel-academy.org. Google passwords are the students' school ID # without the first 0.

For Savvas Realize (formerly Pearson Realize) everyone has the same password: Excel1995. Have your child practice typing a capital E to make this as easy as possible for him/her.

*Encourage your child to give plenty of notice if they need to use the restroom. Our para will escort them to the restroom if it's not during a regular classroom restroom break. Your child may need to wait a few minutes before they can leave the classroom.

*Build in LOTS of movement/physical activity time before and after school. Kids won't have as much outside recess time as usual, so they'll need the chance to move and play a lot at home. :)
