Hello Families! Thank you so much for your support these first 2 weeks. Looking forward to settling into routines. Please let Mr. Hagen know if you have questions or need help. edh@isb.ac.th
Schedule for Week of August 30th
Please review this schedule before Monday morning and assist your child with attending the right sessions at the right times. Mr. Hagen suggests making a schedule with your child as this week’s schedule is different from last week. Mr. Hagen noticed many kids coming to his zoom room throughout the day for the first several weeks. Please help your child adapt to the new routines being introduced this week.
Asynchronous Activities This Week
Asynchronous activities are transitioning into being more academic. A format you will see across reading, writing, and math are chili peppers. Spicier activities are more challenging. Your child should choose which variation of the activity is just right for him/her. Students DO NOT need to complete all 3 versions of the same activity. If your child would like to, it’s OK, but not required. Your child will receive feedback on some asynchronous activities. Watch to see if activities are “sent back”. If this happens, your child will need to review the instructions and try again. Teachers will provide feedback about what specifically needs to be attended to. All Asynchronous activities have audio instructions as well as written instructions. Many feature examples as well. Mr. Hagen will talk more about these at open house on Tuesday.
Small Group Instruction Begins This Week.
We learned a lot about your children last week during assessments. We enjoyed getting to know them and what their individual strengths are. Please check to see which literacy and math group your child will attend. Teacher names are linked in our class schedule. Groups typically last 20-25minutes and it’s important that your child arrives on time and is in a quiet place during these groups. There will be kids from other classes in some literacy groups.
