Independent Reading
Students will be required to read a minimum of 20 minutes a night. Independent reading will be monitored and students will be held accountable. It's important that your child selects a reading book at his/her level and sticks with it.
Google Classroom
We use Google Classroom for many different things such as accessing videos, documents, and turning in class assignments. Students need to enter their AUSD student account information to access the website. Parents can view the website using their child's account.
Class Dojo
Parents be sure you are connected to our Class Dojo page for up to date information on your child's classroom behavior. Directions are given at Back to School night. Pictures, videos, reminders, and more come to you through Class Dojo. It's a private website only available to room 13 parents. You won't want to miss out on all the fun updates throughout the year.
Symbaloo
Our class uses Symbaloo and Draggo for frequently used educational websites. During the beginning of the school week your child will learn about my Symbaloo webmix and they will be bookmarking it for their reference.
