Great First Week!
Starting slow went well in 1st grade! We were able to focus on getting to know the children and begin to develop a sense of where they are academically. This coming week we will continue to enjoy smaller class sizes as we learn and practice our procedures and routines.
A Few Reminders
On half days your child will need one snack
On full days your child will need two snacks
Please send a water bottle each day
Children are expected to wear cloth face masks each day
Computers
As far as we know student devices will be available in October. When I have more information I will pass it on.
Remote Learning Day
Plans for the day have changed a bit in light of the fact that student devices have not arrived. We will meet as a class via Hangouts from 9:30-9:53.
Throughout this school year, whether we are able to stay together in-person or if we have to switch to remote, all students will be using Google Classroom and Seesaw. Since these programs may be used at home we need your help! Please follow the directions included below at your earliest convenience so that we have time to troubleshoot if needed.
**You will need your child’s 5 digit student number.** If you do not have this please let me know! Your student’s email address is his/her student number followed by @stjoebears.com
(Example: 55555@stjoebears.com)
These email accounts are useful for our various programs, but students will not be using them for emailing purposes.
Parent Tasks-Thank you in advance!!
Join Google Classroom
Directions:
1. Using your internet browser (Google Chrome will work best) go to classroom.google.com
2. You must be logged in to your child’s @stjoebears.com account in order to access our Classroom. Click “sign in” in the top right corner. (If you are signed in to another Gmail account you will need to sign out and log in using stjoebears credentials).
3. Once you are logged in and on the classroom.google.com site, click the “+” in the top right hand side of the screen.
4. Select “Join Class”.
5. Enter the class code: Class Code
6. The classroom that you are joined to will now be one screen. The next time you use classroom.google.com this should be the home screen. If you have more than one student using the same device they will need to switch users to view their Classroom.
