Resources for Extended Learning
Throughout these next few weeks, things will be a little off our regularly scheduled routine for sure. I hope to have a lot of the same learning links that I normally use in the classroom to ensure a bit of normalcy. Here are a few resources for you to know and be aware of. Students have been using these apps/resources throughout the year. I use Google Classroom as my 'home-base' and every practice activity I assign will start there.
Google Classroom
I currently set up a new Google Classroom for each unit of study. Currently, you'll find your students Google Classroom for this study called: Southeast Asia, Australia, and Oceania. All activities are posted there with appropriate links for the students to use to complete their assignments. So far, students have two 'ASL' practices posted.
Gimkit, Quizlet, Quizizz
We use many game-based apps to review our content knowledge. These apps allow students to "play" with the content and learn vocabulary in a game-based way.
Epic Reading
Within each unit, I compile a list of books that students can read from to acquire background and supplemental information to help with the unit study. On Google Classroom, you'll find a section/tab labeled Read/Research and Review. Within it, I include the link to Epic. Please encourage your child to read from Epic every day from our Southeast Asia collection. This will give a great amount of background information for our unit study!
McGraw-Hill Online Text
We have been using the McGraw Hill text this year for each of our unit studies. Currently, students can access all required reading by clicking on the app on their Ipad. We are working through Chapter 8. Before we left, we were reading lesson 1.
Along with the text, students can also access games and other resources to practice.
MURSD Extended Learning
The Mendon-Upton Regional School District has also set up an Extended Learning Website for parents and learners looking for resources to promote learning at home.
Office Hours
Mrs. Langdon will be available for
office hours every day from 10-11. Please contact through email: hlangdon@mursd.org
Mrs. Langdon's personal meeting ID: 411-064-2259
I will be posting an Extended Learning Activity on Monday (3/23/20) in Google Classroom for students to work on next week.
Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. I know there are a lot of unknowns right now, but I will do my best to help in any way!
