I will continue to add "assignments" to Splash Math (Splash Learn), Prodigy and Khan Academy. 
• Teachers will have our first "distance learning" staff meeting this upcoming Monday, so I will have more information soon as to how we will continue our at-home learning. I can tell you that we will be using Google Classroom (your student's gmail/Google account) for this distance learning soon. Therefore, I'd like to start by having every student in our classroom log into his/her gmail/Google account. 

Today's Assignment: Good News in Google Classroom using Padlet! - Parents feel free to assist your child in today's assignment, but we've used Google Classroom numerous times this year so your child should be familiar with how to access it. The only new activity is using Padlet. Let me know if you have any questions.

• ​Password (the one they use to log into our school chrome books)
  • ​For example:  s123456@student.roundrockisd.org.             whitefish 
• Next, go to your Google Classroom icon (green/yellow square)
• Click on "Mrs. Lilleboe's Reading/Writing"

Dear Round Rock ISD families,
We are pleased to announce that Round Rock ISD has launched the Home Learning Hub for at-home learning during the school closure.
You can access the Hub from our District’s website and from this direct link:
https://sites.google.com/roundrockisd.org/athomelearning/home
This is a challenging time for everyone, but we hope that by providing learning activities for students to participate in from home we can help bring normalcy and routine and give students and parents resources to maintain educational progress. 
Round Rock ISD’s Home Learning Hub includes grade-level resources anchored in our  Aligned Round Rock Curriculum (ARRC) which is the foundation for all teaching and learning in the District. These resources were designed with choice and flexibility in mind and to keep students actively engaged in grade level content. Students are encouraged to engage with core content activities daily. 
These resources are intended to provide optional enrichment during the cancellation of classes scheduled from March 23 - April 3. We are also providing take-home packets at our curbside breakfast and lunch distribution sites for students who have limited access to devices or the Internet.
Please continue to check Round Rock ISD’s Coronavirus web page for updates:
https://roundrockisd.org/coronavirus/
As always, our primary focus is the health and safety of our students, staff and community, but we encourage students and families to take advantage of this resource to keep students’ minds active and engaged during this unprecedented time. If you have  questions related to the school closure please email them to school_closures@roundrockisd.org. 
Respectfully,
Mandy Estes
Chief of Teaching and Learning
Steve Flores, Ph.D.
Superintendent of Schools
