Parent Resources

Happy (almost) Valentine's Day! January flew by with much fanfare due to all the delays and snow days and put us right in February without a thought! Before we know it, April will be here and the kids will be taking the OAA. I'll talk more about OAA preparation later!

I receive the NEA magazine and this month's issue included 10 free websites for teachers. I wanted to share this website with you because it has a parent section.  The website is Read, Write, Think and it has interactive materials to help kids with writing.  The skills range from organizing and summarizing, to writing poetry to learning about language.  There is a great parent section that I think you should explore and your kids can take advantage of, especially on a snow day!

I was perusing the NEA website and saw this article on the top 10 tech trends students say change education.  With all the technology utilized during a school day, it's interesting to get a kid's perspective, along with other school personnel, as to what is assisting them in education. Check it out and let me know what you think!
