In addition to the yellow communication folders, I have now created this blog to keep you updated on things happening in our school and classroom. Instead of sending home paper reminders of upcoming events, I want to be more environmentally friendly by using this blog as a way to communicate important information to you. Letters and forms from the PAC, school and community will still be coming home in the yellow folders but all other classroom news will be posted on my blog. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Please take a moment to subscribe so you don&#8217;t miss any important information!<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>On Monday I will be sending home a notice with instructions to access PASSWORD PROTECTED posts. Please look in your child&#8217;s yellow communication folder for these instructions. Password Protected posts may have pictures of students in them. Please do not share this password.<br \/>\n**You are welcome to save photos that your child is in, but\u00a0<u>please remember<\/u>: if there is another child in the photo you\u00a0<u>may NOT<\/u>\u00a0post that picture on social media (ex. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, your own personal blog, etc.)**<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Some posts will also include students engaged in classroom activities and samples of their work. These posts will complement the Kindergarten curriculum and will work as evidence of their learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><u>Tips on Commenting and Supporting the Learning Process<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I invite you to be partners in your child\u2019s learning process throughout the year by commenting on the posts. I share family comments with the students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Under any of the posts, there will be a COMMENT link &gt; click to open a box. (You can record in any language.)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Some suggestions for your comments are to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Notice thoughts, capacities and growth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Connect with your child\u2019s opinions, stories or ideas<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Share your intellectual curiosity; wonder aloud<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Encourage<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Co-conspire\u2026 \u201cYou are interested in spiders?
