    Good morning everyone ! I've used a class YouTube channel in the past, but you guys are giving me some other ideas !! Hope everyone had a great weekend #bfc530
  • ChrisQuinn64 Jul 9 @ 5:50 AM EDT
    I have found one of the best ways to welcome and (re)engage families from day one is to maintain open and honest communication all year long...sharing successes and concerns...but not forgetting successes...even more than concerns! 😊 #bfc530
  • ChrisQuinn64 Jul 9 @ 5:52 AM EDT
    I have had great success with @Seesaw in staying connected, daily, with parents/families...offering a window into our learning! I offered a welcome video last year! #bfc530

    1. A letter/course outline to introduce me & course, collect email address of parent + photo permissions & they sign. 2. Then add parents to the Google Classroom acct to get regular updates about what we're up to. #bfc530

    I really want my Ss to pick some project they’d like to do around their house: new base boards, artwork, sofa, flooring. I’m going to send out a video prior to school starting about the project to parents and to start discussing what you’d like done. #bfc530

    Here is to the teachers who want to break the mold of cookie cutter approaches in their classroom for the sake of their students. #bfc530 #satchat
  • wheeler_laura Jul 9 @ 7:31 AM EDT
    Yes I do that too - to show where I may be putting photos from our classroom. Not too many follow though. Some students do though! #bfc530

    I typically will begin posting videos to my website at the beginning of August to “tease” the culture and objectives of my classroom #bfc530

    This is a good idea ... keeping the parents in the loop helps them stay connected to what the kids are doing in class. #bfc530

    Like in previous years, I'll get parent signatures and photo release. But this year I will include voting deadlines, invitation for B2S and field trips. At B2S, we will have Board of Elections for voter registration in time for the general election. #government #BFC530

    We have open house prior to school starting. I will get all Ps signed up on @ClassDojo, sign photo release policy, and collect their current email addresses. For the ones that are not at open house, I will work diligently to get them signed up during the first week. #bfc530
