Welcome to 5th Grade!
I am so excited to take this adventure with you! This year will be Each student will be assigned a chromebook that they will use throughout the day. I have done a lot of research and work this summer to find effective ways to use technology. More about that can be found
here.
This year, we will use our Google logins every day. Those logins are specific for each student. Example:
firstname.lastname@summitcubs.org. The password is $ummit then their lunch number. Your student will use Google Drive to store their work online. This can be accessed at home as well. They will also use Typing Club to improve their typing skills. We will have many different opportunities this year including adding to our Seesaw Portfolio and learning coding techniques by using websites such as Scratch and code.org.
Students will attend specials for 30 minutes. Those specials include art (taught by Mr. Corry), library (taught by Mrs. Mock), and P.E (taught by Mr. Wagner). Computers will be integrated in our classroom as well as keyboarding skills done at home.
If you at any time have questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at
janalie.jensen@summitacademyschools.org. You are always welcome to call the office to leave a message for me as well or message me directly using Seesaw. I try to answer emails and messages within 48 hours of receiving them.
Let's make this year the best year possible!
