Learning Resources to Support Students (Updated Tuesday, 3/17/2020)
Hello Hawk Families,
Now that we have had a moment to breathe and settle in to new routines for the next few weeks, I wanted to provide some learning resources for students. It is important for students to continue their learning at home during this time of school closure.
San Diego Unified has uploaded the promised Online Curriculum Resources. See link for Grade Specific resources and take a minute to watch the provided Video.
Additionally, students should be accessing their online programs that they use in school.
Please refer to the LEARNING LINKS page.
This is a great opportunity for students to explore their own topics of interest or create something with those boxes in the garage.
Here are two videos to share with the students that could provide inspiration for ideas:
Caine's Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=faIFNkdq96U
Audri's Monster Trap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMboI4cOAuQ
I look forward to hearing from the students the things that they learned over the next three weeks. I will continue to update families as needed with the most timely information that I have. Please refer to the San Diego Unified School District website for resources including childcare opportunities and the availability of school meals. School is still scheduled to resume April 6th.
Stay healthy!
