Hello First Grade Families,

I already miss seeing your children today!  Six weeks seems like forever.  BUt, we all want to stay safe and healthy, therefore I will be doing everything I can to stay in contact with all of you and help individually with a plan for your child to stay active and engaged in learning, even though we are not teaching new content at this time.

I will be using Google Classroom to set up links for learning and a way to message back and forth with as many students as possible.  Most students received flyers that tell step by step how to use Google Classroom.  The students who were in the classroom on Friday all logged into Google Classroom with our class code, which is xa4x63c,   Please email me directly at dgirault@everettsd.org if you are having any trouble.  Each week there will be updates about new information and tools students can use.  You can also leave me messages at 425-385-4651.  

This is an opportunity for all of us to be resilient and use Growth Mindset, just as we do in the classroom.  Ask your children to say  "Kiss my beautiful brain!" just as we do in the classroom.  I wish you all health and happiness in the days ahead.
