Hello!  Over the next couple of weeks, the blog will be one of our main forms of communication.  Think of this as your daily menu, not just for reading but for all of our subjects.  This menu is for the entire week.  Next week you will have a menu to complete daily.

1. Go to Padlet – Think of this as our bell work writing.   Tell us how have you been, what have you been up to and how you are feeling about everything. Comment on at least two others students posts, with at least three complete sentences to get the conversations flowing. Be thoughtful and kind in your responses.  If someone comments on your post, write them back.
2. Let’s get talking!-  Send Ms. Brokaw an email.  Click the Outlook icon below to follow the directions from the video Mrs. Hamman made if you need help to do so.  A great way to get in contact with me over the next few weeks is through email.  Please practice sending me an email.  You obviously don’t want to email Mrs. Hamman (well maybe you do but practice sending me one first😉).  My email is nicole.brokaw@husd.org.
3. Check out Epic Books .  Our class code is etb1190.  Find your name.  It will ask you to set up an account to have access for the rest of the school year.  Enter your student email address to set it up.  Look through the books they have to see which you think would be good options for our digital book clubs.
4. Go here to tell me which book(s) would be a good option for our digital book clubs.  Please make sure they are chapter books.  Let’s hear what you have to say!
5. Play a Quizizz game.  This should  work like the Quizizz we have played together in class.  It has basic trivia just to practice.
6. Read Blood, Smoke, and Freedom: A True Story of the American Revolution .
7. Watch the I Survived Beyond the Battlefield Virtual Field Trip
8. Go to FlipGrid .  Make sure you sign in with your school email address.  Record a video telling two things you learned from the I Survived Virtual Field Trip and one question you still have.
9. Play a game on iCivics– if you need your username/password email Ms. Brokaw.

If you have any questions, please let me know.  I can’t wait to continue our digital learning next week and ‘see’ you all through different video chat options!
