Weekly Update for January 25th-29th, 2020

Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Friday!  The students and I were estatic to be back in the classroom, and they worked so hard this week. We are right on track with our pacing  which is pretty amazing considering the extinutating circumstances we are in.  The 26th is the last day of this 9 week quarter. Hard 2 believe that we are down 2 quarters with 2 more to go.  

In math, we are beginning to add 2 and 3 digit numbers. I noticed that students did struggle with this so any additional help you can give your student at home would help tremendously. I am helping additionally as well, working with students in small groups to correct their errors and help with understanding. 

Monday, January 25th is a teacher workday so there will be no school. School will resume Tuesday, the 26th.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. 

Sincerely, 

Mrs. Dina Knight

 Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Monday!  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, taking time today to reflect on the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and his influential movement to improve the civil rights of African Americans in our country. 

Looking ahead to next week, beginning Tuesday, January 19th, 2021 we will be going back to face to face instruction. Friday, January 22nd will still be a half day dismissal day.  I am looking forward to seeing the students and resuming face to face instruction.

Weekly Update for January 11th-15th, 2021

 Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Friday!  I hope you all are healthy and dry!  The students and I transitioned nicely from Winter Break to virtual learning. I was so very happy to see the kiddos' smiling faces and hear their precious voices. I am looking forward to returning to face to face instruction on Tuesday, January 19th.  While we are virtual, parents could you please help me encourage your student to be present while online with me, making sure he/she has on their headphones if they prefer to wear them and also emphasize the importance of turning in assignments on time and taking their time to complete them. The end of the 9 weeks is January 26th and I do not want your students grades to begin to slip this late in the grading period.  I appreciate your support in advance.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I will see your students Monday morning online at 9a.m. However, they are to login to Google Classroom at 8:30 to complete their morning math work independently. 

Sincerely

Mrs. Dina Knight
