March has arrived! By the end of the week, it will feel like spring and next week will bring longer days! (Do not forget to spring forward this weekend and turn your clocks ahead one hour) We are making our way through the school year very quickly! Next week we have conferences and then 2 weeks after that is spring break!
Kindergarten Registration is open - please spread the word to neighbors and friends who may have a kindergarten student ready to start school this September! If you have younger children who are ready to join us for Kindergarten, please register them so we can begin planning! More information is below.
Technology Tip
Parent Tech Tip from our Technology Teacher, Ms. Cameron
Using Technology to Support Learning
Technology works best when it supports learning rather than distracting from it. Families can help children use devices for practicing skills, researching interests, and staying organized with schoolwork. Talking about how technology helps learning at school and at home creates consistency and shared expectations.
Action step: Ask your child to show you one way they use technology for learning at school and talk about how to support that habit at home. IXL and Keyboarding Without Tears can both be accessed from home.
LIM/PBIS Update
Leader in Me Habit for March - Seek to understand, then be understood
What this means:
We tell students to stop and think about what they are seeing or hearing, listen carefully to understand and then share your own ideas so others can understand you.
