Have a way to connect to pictures/videos. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899396 2016-08-10 15:03:06 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899396 psinkler1 https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899468 send info to homeroom teacher]]> 2016-08-10 15:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899468 Quick pic or vid with new vocabulary (Katie T's idea) https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899482 2016-08-10 15:03:40 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899482 First- I would like very clear expectations from admin as to what is expected from me in terms of what to send to parents https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899515 2016-08-10 15:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899515 Consistency and simplicity in posting wherever the final decision https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899542 2016-08-10 15:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899542 Monthly communication/short but sweet. We are all inundated with too much information. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899552 2016-08-10 15:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899552 https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899606 I would prefer to do my own posting rather than impose on the classroom teachers to do it

Leads to comparisons between students and puts pressure on me

What about videos that we make and post on YouTube....is this allowable? If not, what is a better alternative]]> 2016-08-10 15:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117899941 Less is more!!!  We need to send info only once a week from homeroom teacher and once a week from front desk/admin. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117900028 2016-08-10 15:08:40 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117900028 j https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117900301 1 site for all resource and have a link connected to the classroom schoology page and then it would be 1 click for a parent to see everything going on in the resource area]]> 2016-08-10 15:11:31 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117900301 Communicate once a month with class information and could add other information as needed. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117901571 2016-08-10 15:23:00 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/117901571 How about asking parents--in the form of a quick survey--how often they want to view resource info? It might be a good place to start and/or to compare to actual usage. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/118333986 2016-08-15 19:43:35 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/118333986 Blog post entries by grade level and not individual class... found by parents in a location that houses all the resource teacher links would be great. Much like what we did a couple of years ago. https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/118338628 2016-08-15 20:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/psinkler1/r21v8ebx36bn/wish/118338628
