New Updates to Our Blog

        I've made some additions to our blog!  You'll notice there's now tabs across the top of our classroom blog for News (this blog), Home-School Connection, Resources, and Students' Blog...

News Blog

• This will continue to be where to go for current announcements and newsletters.

Home-School Connection (New)

• Here I will post activities, websites, and apps that you can use with your son or daughter to help reinforce what is being learned in school.  You may use the Labels feature to the right to pinpoint what type of activities you are looking for.

Resources (New)

• This page will include resources to be used through out the year like flashcards, writing paper, sight words, letter tiles, and other resources.

Students' Blog

• To help with navigation, I added a tab on to our News Blog.  Student Google accounts and any parent gmail accounts will be added.  Only gmail accounts that I add to the blog are permitted to view it.  (Student Google Account info. will be going home the first week of November now that all permission forms are in).

Mr. Mott's YouTube Channel (New Link on sidebar)

• I use YouTube for a variety of reasons.  The students love the movement breaks in the morning after Morning Meeting and cleaning up from snack.  I find and save videos to my YouTube channel about sight words, letters, and numbers to help incorporate other modes of learning.  Sometimes I find videos that go well with topics or help start conversations related to topics we are learning in school.  I also find movies of books we have read in school as well!  I added the link so that if you have a rainy (or snowy day) and need a movement break, a short educational video, or a short story, then you can use my YouTube Channel.
