Dear Parents,
This is a short week for us with the American Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday and Friday. I do hope you enjoy some time with your family remembering all that we have to be thankful for. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I will begin sending out the ENotes in a slightly different format next week: November 30. Instead of a list, you will receive a link to the new ES Office Blog which will contain the same information, in a more useful (for us) format. You can already access the blog. (http://aswarsawelementary.weebly.com/welcome/enotes-november-23-2015) Please join me and the ES Tech Team for a joint- ES PAC meeting on Thursday, December 3. One of the topics I want to more fully explore with you is communication in the elementary school. We will meet in the TLC near the security desk and across from TJ’s office. Happy Thanksgiving! Jen From the ES Tech Coaches On Thursday, December 3, immediately following the Elementary PAC meeting, please join Simon May and Kris Sheehan, our ES Technology Coaches, for another Parent-Technology Connection (PTC) session. We will begin by sharing useful websites for finding and reviewing educational iPad apps. Then, we will guide you through strategies for using and organising your Gmail. You will learn about organizing your email into different viewing options, archiving emails, using labeling as a way to more easily sort your email, adding signatures and any other topics that we have time for during this hour. We will have a number of laptops we can share, but please bring your own if you have one. This session will be most helpful if you have your own gmail account, but we have created practice accounts for those who are not currently using gmail. We are looking forward to seeing you all! AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Fall Season of after-school activities has ended. The only exception is Acrobatics class which will end today. Please follow the weekly activities updates, which are shared here in the Principal’s e-notes every Monday.
