Cougar Communication
A special edition of Cougar Communication! I know you’ve been
waiting all summer for this.
Ideas for the Classroom
I’ve plugged this seemingly a thousand times, but I’ve got
to plug it one more time. Remind—they’ve dropped the 101—is a great tool that
enables you to send mass texts/emails to parents and students in your class
without them ever seeing your cell phone number. Truthfully, you don’t even
need a cell phone to use it.
Here’s why I love Remind:
- It takes less than 3 minutes to set up an account.
- They’ve added a new feature that enables you to text small groups (at least 3) students or their parents. For example, if 5 students have until tomorrow to take a test, you can select just those 5 to send emails or texts to.
- To send a text takes only as long as it takes you to type your message.
- Totally free!
Administrative Notes
Our admin supervisory meeting on Friday will be in Mr.
Wright’s classroom. A couple of things to think about: 1) What is student
engagement? 2) What are 3 goals that you are going to set for yourself this
year.
Speaking of goals, here’s a link
to mine (not my official Standard 7 Goal)
