March 20, 2020

Announcements

Apparently, I began the outline of this blog update last Friday. Yesterday, I was so emotional as I had to delete everything the students and I were supposed to do these past few days. I cannot believe how much has changed in a week. We will keep going one day at a time, and I know this wonderful, creative group of third graders and their parents are going to make the best of this tough situation!

If you are on Facebook and have not joined the Paxton Keeley PTA page, please consider doing so. There are many ideas, resources, and activities being posted daily. It is also a great place to stay in touch with the PK community.

If you have not already, please consider downloading the Zoom app and signing up for an account for your third grader. I am in the process of training with this program, and will be using it to keep us all connected. It is free to use, and has been fairly easy to navigate. I'll be doing 2 practice sessions next week to try it out with students. Look for an email link to meet Monday at 1:00 and Wednesday at 3:00. These are just to see how the program works for us and catch up! Your third grader can come to one, both, or none if that does not work out.

The packets that were sent home this week are also located in digital format on the CPS Covid-19 page located here.

Finally, I received a few pictures of students at work from home.

Here is Flynn working on a writing piece!


Here is Maddy completing the Mystery Science called Can We Make it Rain?




Here is a video of Harper doing a colorful art experiment!



Please make sure to send me your pictures so I can post them!
