Distance Learning in Action
DISTANCE LEARNING With week one of Distance Learning under our belt, we want to congratulate all the parents who took on an additional role at home and became the teachers. We realize it's not an easy task to juggle working from home, often caring for more than one child and teaching young children. As we develop this new way of teaching, we want to make sure you take advantage of the office hours the teachers are offering to connect with you to answer any questions and of the meeting times with your child and their peers. Check the invites on Shutterfly to schedule a time. Coming up next week, we have added mini soccer lessons led by Coach Lawrence and our wonderful aides will supplement with elective classes such as chanting and dancing "E Ala E" with Ms. Helm, extension of the Great Turnip tale with Ms. Cardaropoli, hands on science lesson with Ms. Ito and more. We are also looking at adding live sessions with specialists and aides to our schedule for the week of April 13. From now on, all new lessons will be linked on Sunday @ 5:00 p.m. for the following week.
As for Mme Akina, she will continue to read her favorite stories. As always, we look forward to hearing from you and we thank you for your continued support. We miss you all terribly!
SOCIAL MEDIA POSTING We will be asking that you respect the employees' privacy and to avoid posting their virtual meetings with your child on social media. More, if you were to post other children's photos or videos, remember to get permission from their parents. We appreciate your understanding.
