I'm excited to announce that our classroom will begin using a new app!  Recommended by Mr. Brandon Bailey, Director of Educational Services, the app, TalkingPoints, will allow us the ability to communicate in over 25 languages!

There is a free parents app for enhanced experience, or if you don't have it, you can still receive your messages as text messages.  The app is called,  TalkingPoints for Parents.  To join, enter class code ADR6EX.

I feel this is an excellent opportunity for us to work together to support students’ learning without the worry of the language barrier!  

I have also prepared letters to send home with the students that have these directions in various languages.  

I look forward to trying out this app and think this is an excellent way to share our diversity!

 

 

Yay!  We welcomed a new student to our classroom this week!  Anna Lara comes to us from Brazil and speaks Portuguese!  We are so excited to have her in our class!
We are so excited to see our published books!  We celebrated with some shamrock smiley cookies because I feel very LUCKY to work with such amazing kids!  I am so proud of how hard they worked on this project!
So proud of all of my students who have been working so hard on their tests.  We will finish them NEXT week due to the SNOW DAYS this week.
