Back to School Night! 2018

Normally, Mrs. Yollis' class looks like this.















Tonight, the classroom looked like this!











It was Back to School Night!
Parents came to hear about third grade!
Lots of information was shared about classroom expectations, curriculum, and resources. 



The centerpiece of the classroom is the blog.  Mrs. Yollis had her good friend and blogging buddy, Mrs. Morris from Australia, Skype in and talk with the parents about the value of blogging. Meeting and learning from our new Australian friend was a highlight of the evening!  










Educational blogging has so many benefits! Thank you, Mrs. Morris, for this blogging diagram. 





To learn about blogging from a student perspective, watch this video Mrs. Yollis made with her third graders about why they love blogging.  


 



Here is a wonderful video about supervising and guiding children on the web. It is a great video that really drives the point home. Thank you, Bill Genereux, for the fabulous movie.

Parents left thoughtful notes for their child. With Dry Erase pens, you can write right on the desk! Everyone loved it!
