SLED Day #15 Update

Just wanted to give a quick update with where we are as of right now.

-Remember this is a four day week for school - so SLED days 15-18 are happening this week. 
-Packets needs to go out by the end of the week so please attend to that.
-We do not have any answers at this point about whether we will return to school. 
-In the next few weeks, we will have a discussion about retaining students who we are worried about going on to the next grade.  Just hold off on those now.  
-We have put a tote on the front porch for students to put their SLED work in.  We will collect what is turned in.  I think the state is going to waive us having to turn in student samples so don't stress about that.

As you work on videos for the days ahead - please add in teaching content.  We have done a terrific job getting on their showing our love and support but if you are like me - you feel like you are saying the same things over and over.  A great idea is to do a short mini-lesson about the topics on the choiceboard for that day.  Screencastify is a Google extension that allows you to show your screen and insert a video of yourself teaching.  Another great app is Flipgrid.  You may want to use something you've found yourself.  Mr. Dodson sent out a video tutorial about some of these tools a couple of weeks ago. Check it out! 

Stay home and stay healthy!
