READ ALOUD
There is a read aloud available for interested students for the book Grump by Liesl Shurtliff.  The links for each chapter are available on ItsLearning.  Your child logs onto ItsLearning (there is a link on the digital backpack page) and finds the box for Language Arts. There will be a link to listen to the chapter and there is a link to a google form with questions to answer from that chapter.  By recording it and putting it on Itslearning, you have the freedom to decide on when is a good time to participate with the book.  Each chapter is running about 30 minutes.
CLICK HERE to see the video for directions to get to Grump on ItsLearning!

ZOOM SESSIONS
This week (May 18-22) there will lessons taught through Zoom from Mrs. Mallette and Mrs. Wolf.  On Tuesday and Thursday, you will see on the schedule that there is a morning session and an afternoon session, each is for one hour.  Mrs. Mallette will spend the first 30 minutes with language arts, then Mrs. Wolf will follow up the second part of the hour with math.  The same lesson will be taught in the afternoon that was taught in the morning, so you can choose which session better fits your family's schedule.

Don't forget to join us on Friday morning for our special Teacher of the Day activities!  Our guest teachers have been working hard at preparing fun activities!!
