May 25^th

We are getting close to the end of this school year! You have only a few more weeks to try out the Teams Site. It is strongly recommended that you do this. It is something that we teachers believe will be a necessary part of our teaching in the coming school year. It is to your benefit to try to use this now and become familiar with it before it is something that you must know and use daily. It is OK to make mistakes. That leads to learning.

“A mistake is just a first attempt at doing something right!”

I am learning this now too, and I need students to participate and give feedback when I do something wrong or post something that is not clear. This helps me and helps you.

I have posted on Teams three small assignments: this weeks Writing Choice Board, a video to watch and respond to, and another short poetry assignment. None of these will take very long to do but will help you learn how to navigate through this site.

You should continue to read each day and to complete one of the Currents4Kids assignments (read the article, answer the “on the line” quiz, “between the lines” quiz, and response question).

SOMETHING NEW AND EXCITING COMING NEXT WEEK!

We are working on a fun final project that we will want everyone to do. We think it is something that everyone will want to do! Stay tuned for details next Monday.

Remember that when you complete assignments on Teams, they are automatically saved and available for me to see. If you are completing the assignments for Currents4Kids, the results and your responses are there for me to see. If you are writing a choice from the Writing Choice Board off the Teams site, send your work to my teacher email as a document or a picture.

Have a good week and stay safe!

Mrs. C.
