Hey Everyone,

 I hope that this week it has been easier to adjust to your new routines and enjoy learning experiences with your child and time with family. I am here for you if you have questions about anything. We are working hard as teachers to find the best ways to help from home. We're all in this together so please let me know how else I can help.

 We have decided for conferences to give you options for what works best for you! Please fill out this survey if you haven’t already: https://forms.gle/UC3SrDZ5LQH7Vb3e6

 Also, if you do not follow NDLC Facebook’s page there are a lot of wonderful ideas and ways to connect available there as well! The page is called NDLC Charter School. We are even doing some virtual dress up days this week.

 Here are the lists of high frequency words to practice reading and spelling (we can also email you the PDF if you would like an easier way to print them):



Just a reminder I am updating our Google Classroom if you want to check that out and comment!

 Starting this week we will be sharing videos for math from Mrs. Behrmann and reading/writing/word work videos from Miss Wittmann. Please let us know if you find them convenient and helpful. We are trying out different things and trying to make plans that help you and the students.
