  1. Google Classroom Update

    December 17, 2015 by Ms. L

    Greetings families! I wanted to update everyone about the use of Google Classroom in 4th and 5th grade reading and math. As the year progresses, “Classroom” will be used more and more as the transmission mode of assignments and projects. What this means for you and your student:

    • Your students will be using less paper
    • Your students will continue to grow as 21st century learners
    • Your students will have an increaded opportunity to collaborate with their peers
    • You will see less graded papers coming home in Thursday folders
    • You will be able to view your student’s grades and assignments via their Google Classroom account

     

    I hope everyone has a relaxing and rejuvinating Winter break.

    Best,

    Jennifer and Gina


  2. Google Classroom is Up and Running for 5th Graders in TAG LA

    November 8, 2015 by Ms. L

    Google Classroom is an amazing instructional tool. There are so many advantages to using “classroom” for assignments and assessments over traditional paper and pencil ones. Your students are already familiar with using Google Drive so the transition from paper to cloud based has been seamless. When the Chromebooks are distributed, your students will be able to hit the proverbial ground running! Have no fear “old schoolers” about the potential death of the pen and paper. Not all instruction and work is geared towards using a virtual/online method. Your students will still need to put pen to paper!

    I am including a link to a short youtube clip to give you more information about Google Classroom. Also, please have your students show their Google Classroom assignments to you.

    *A note to 4th grade parents:
    Your students are still learning Google Drive and the capabilities associated with it. I suspect that they’ll be able to access assignments through Google Classroom within the next week or so.
