Students will go to music this week, and have PE next week. Report Cards will go home on Tuesday, and we will take the MAP test in Language on Wednesday. Please remember that Scootpad reading practices are the best way to prepare for this test at this time.
Last week, students were given a username and password for a website called, AdaptedMind. A letter about this was sent home in your student's blue communication folder, and students wrote their username and password on the inside pocket of their blue communication folder.
The link for this site has been available on our learning links page for quite some time, but the site has recently made personal student accounts a free service for us. This is a wonderful resource for students to practice specific math concepts at school, and I am weighing the pros and cons of using this for math homework either in addition to or in place of ScootPad.
I have asked students to try using AdaptedMind for math homework this week either in addition to or in place of their regular ScootPad assignments. Students will be giving me their opinions at school this Friday. However, I would love to get some parent feedback on this as well. Please consider participating in the simple poll below, and leaving additional thoughts in the comments section of this blog. Thank you in advance for taking time out of your busy schedules for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your input.
Highest Regards,
Gina Weber
