Good morning parents and students!

We hope that you are all doing well and staying safe.  We miss all of you!  Please reach out to us if there is anything that we can help you with.

Below you will find a couple of cute videos that go over some skills we have learned.  These two go over bossy/magic E and dividing words into closed syllables.  We hope you enjoy them!  Check back weekly for more videos.

Learning Ally, 2nd round of packets, and other programs.

April15

Good afternoon students and parents,

We hope that you are all doing well and are staying safe.  Today we mailed out the second round of paper packets.  You can expect them in the next couple of days.  Please let us know if you do not receive them by the end of next week.  There are many games and activities that you can do included in your packet.  We also included an instruction page with details on how to access each program that is available for you to work on at home.  The Learning Ally program will be new to some of you, however most of you have used it in the past.  We included your username and password for this program on your instruction page in your packet.  Most of your usernames are your first mane, last initial, and the number 1.  Most passwords are 123456.  We hope that these programs and packets are helpful to you.  Please let us know if there is anything that we can help with.
