Monday, March 30, 2020Dear 3N Students and Families,Here we go again—Week 3 of at-home learning! I hope last week went well for you all. Keep the photos and emails and Class Dojo posts coming—it really makes my day to get your messages or photos! This coming week, learning activities will continue to be suggestions, but will not be required yet. I again will plan to do most of my communicating via Class Dojo (which is accessible both via the app and its website). Parents, thank you for your help with both surveys last week—it was appreciated. As soon as I’ve heard from almost everyone on the Zoom survey, be on the lookout for an invitation for our first virtual class meeting this week!The learning plan may look a little different this week. Since?in?school learning has been cancelled for longer, the 3rd?grade team is working together on plans and resources to remain consistent across the grade level. Please look to the grade level website for?additional?resources and print outs, under the Remote Learning tab here: . If some of this week’s activities seem like repeats of what you did last week, that’s okay! You can either get a little extra practice with that skill or substitute an activity from the Week 1 or 2 learning plan that you did not yet do. If you’re not sure what you can do on a given day, let me know and I can help! In addition to the more specific learning activities for the week, I have also included a list of some 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.754380010160000Students, I continue to miss you all, so much! I will keep up the daily read alouds of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on ClassDojo. It makes my teacher heart happy to see pictures of you reading along with me or listening in! Parents, keep reaching out if you need assistance logging in or with any of the sites.

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 two weeks ago 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. ................
