Plainville Public Schools / Overview
Monday, May 18, 2020Dear 3N Students and Families,Here we are in Week 10 of remote learning—and we are down to just over four weeks to go of this routine! We’ve got this! We will plan on another Zoom call this Thursday 5/21 at 11 am. Parents, be on the lookout for a new invitation to this whole class Zoom meeting later in the week. Students, stay tuned to Class Dojo to vote on our activity for this week! This week, I will be hosting one more Zoom for 3N students. It will be an optional math help Zoom, on Tuesday 5/19 at 9:30 am. We will focus on reviewing the Origo lessons covered in Ms. Campbell’s Nearpod last week, and we will also preview the concepts to be covered in this week’s math lesson. All are welcome to attend, but as I said it is an optional session for students who would like a little extra teacher time with the math concepts being covered. I will also be hosting another round of small group reading Zoom sessions this Wednesday 5/20 from 11 am to 1 pm, on each half hour. On Monday, a separate email will be sent out with your child’s group information and Zoom invitation. These small group sessions will be informal reading check-ins, to touch base about reading strategies for this week’s ReadWorks assignment, as well as any books students are reading on their own at home these days! Below, please find a schedule of daily learning activities for this week. Since school closures have been extended until the end of the school year, the 3rd grade team is working to provide grade-wide consistent plans and resources. Completing the Nearpods should be the main priority for work for the week, as these are where teachers are embedding any new content. Please look to the grade level website for?additional?resources and print outs, under the Remote Learning tab here: learning activities are now recommended?for all students, as new topics will be continued to be introduced throughout the rest of the school year. Please remember that if any resources are giving you technical difficulties, or you are becoming overly frustrated, simply let your teacher know and move on to another learning activity. We want remote learning to remain as stress-free for all as it possibly can be!?7157700-32831600In addition to the more specific learning activities for the week, I have also included a list of a few additional resources as well. If you do nothing else each day, find time to lose yourself in a great book, get some physical activity (outdoors if it’s a nice day), and take some mindfulness breaks if you feel overwhelmed. Parents, you know I’m always here if you need help or have INCLUDEPICTURE "" \* MERGEFORMATINET questions.

Why not create a time capsule about this time period, to reread one day or to pass on to future generations! Check out this time capsule/journal that you and your parents can complete together: Sense Media has developed a curated list for schools and families of educational and stay-at-home resources that are worthwhile. Check out their site here: are always welcome to log into and play Prodigy or Happy Numbers for even more at-home math learning.TypingPal Online is always a great resource for students to practice typing skills. The link can be found on my website and students have their own log-ins. Emily A also found another typing practice website, which she highly recommends! Here is Typing Club: Math Puzzles. If you have access to a printer or a screen, these are the extension puzzles I provide weekly for students…they really enjoy the picture equation puzzles and the multiplication table puzzles the most! Finally, there are bound to be a host of emotions and stress levels while at home all together, without our routines to ground us. The following social-emotional and mindfulness websites are our ‘go-tos’ in 3N: - Cosmic Kids Yoga has some excellent yoga and mindfulness practice. In our classroom, we especially like the “Guided Relaxation” series of videos. - Go Noodle! has a variety of free brain break (and indoor friendly!) guided physical activities and dances that let kids move around in a structured way. They also have some mindfulness trainings as well. – Mrs. Skeffington came into our class recently and shared the book “A Little Peaceful Spot,” all about recognizing various emotions and using breathing and mindfulness techniques to bring ourselves back to a peaceful “green” spot. ................
