Hi, parents!
We are in full swing on the Chromebooks. If your student prefers a specific type of earbud or headset, please send them in. We will label and store them. I have community headphones which are over the ear for all to use. Some don’t like them. If your student has an earbud/earphone preference, please know they can use them on the Chromebooks.
Students have an option for homework tonight. They can do the paper homework, where they look for things that come in groups, or they can do Xtramath (www.xtramath.org) or Freckle.com. For reading, they can read for 20 minutes and check off one one thing for their reading log, or do one reading lesson in Freckle. This will become the norm as we progress with more options as students get comfortable with electronic adaptive programs.
Also, we all logged into Classcraft today and the instructions for setting up parent accounts is in your student’s GO folder in the clear plastic sheet. Their login information for Google Classroom and Xtramath is in the same plastic sheet.
Please let me know if you have any questions as we progress. Thanks for your help as we move through the set up process and on to application.
A link to our paper homework for the week can be found at the bottom of this page as well (scroll down): https://msbinclass.com/homework-policy/
Have a great night!
Ms. B. in Class
