Week 7 Distant Learning
The students must have been very busy this week because they didn't send me too many pictures of their learning. I was able to find some excellent work though. I'm so proud of them for continuing to engage right up to the last weeks of school. Yes, next week is our last full week of school. We will wind up our first distance learning instructional quarter of school. It sure was strange, but I really believe that we did the best each of us knew how. We all visited each other's personal lives, homes, shared our families, siblings, and pets and we've continued to learn math and reading too.
Students continue to work independently on their work each day, however, they are also participating daily in either synchronous (Live video sessions) or asynchronous (recorded video sessions) with their teachers and classmates. These sessions have not only helped students with an understanding of concepts, but they have also helped to reconnect them to their teachers and classmates socially.
As someone who appreciates art, but is not quite an artist herself, I am totally amazed by the talent that I see from our Glenbrook artists. This dinosaur shading popped into my inbox yesterday. I could not figure out who the artist was, but it's incredible. (Please come forward so I can give you credit!) To see more fabulous art, please visit our annual art show. This year it is, of course virtual, but I promise you, it will be worth the virtual tour.
Ms. Scarpino sent me these pictures and writing pieces. It's amazing how far our kindergarteners have come. They really are ready for 1st grade and I know the 1st-grade teachers are ready for them. Great job "almost first graders!"
