Week Eight 2012
Once again, I’m not keeping up with my work life online. Part of this is because I’m spending more time staying in touch with parents this year, so I thought I’d start this week’s report by sharing how I’m doing that.
First, I am using the Googles to simplify my life in a couple of ways. I started a Gmail account for class administrivia last year, and I’ve carried it over to this year. When I got my class list, I looked up all my parents’ email addresses and cell phone numbers, and started to add them to my contacts. I use this as the base to send out a weekly email update about what the class is doing. Here is last week’s communique:

- We started new units/chapters in all our subject areas. Social Studies was early
