Ms. Culmone and Ms. Quigley have been doing an "idea a day" on their Instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/culmoneandquigleyskinders/?hl=en) to encourage parents to do some more hands on skills at home. They turned it into challenges and parents are starting to get into it, sending pictures and videos of students participating and they're giving great feedback !!

Climate and Culture

VIRTUAL LEARNING

As we go through the school shut down to protect our staff and students we asked our staff and parents to send us pictures of the comfy, creative and fun ways they are learning from home! We have to admit, we LOVE seeing the hard work and dedication to academics that our Slaybaugh family is portraying in such a crazy time! Take a look at how everyone is learning!!

Mr. Marinelli is working from home in his comfy clothes!

Ms. Collins is working from her new desk...the kitchen table! She has her loving helper, Nutmeg, who is enjoying every second of mom working from home!

Mrs. Basdekis and Mrs. McGinnis' class had their first Video Chat using Zoom and it went so well!! They got to talk with each other, share stories, review at home work expectations and chat with their friends! The students really enjoyed it and they are planning to do these very often!!
