Dear Parents,
I am very excited to assist your child through many accomplishments in elementary school! Through the internet and other valuable sources, we can become more comfortable with tools that teach, practice and showcase your child's abilities. Let's work together to encourage resourcefulness, creativity, skill mastery and self reliance.
IMPORTANT: While all DIRECT LINKS are carefully analyzed to ensure they are child appropriate, they do not block the many random other sites your child can link to on their own. Encourage practicing the links directly from my web program and train them to use the back arrow to return. Many parents use my homepage as their homepage or list it under their web favorites.
The best monitoring for the internet is always being diligent by using block protection, exploring new sites with your children, looking over the shoulder during independent practice and researching their links through your computer history.
*note: If your child has been given a series of colors, these colors will serve as gateways to internet resources. They go with specific webpage "pacers." Pacers are my webpages divided by subject; currently reading, writing and math.
Please help us encourage your child to use the color coded practice activities by sharing in their web endeavors and rewarding their efforts. If you forget the personalized colors, or your would like to touch base, please email me anytime.
Your child's self worth is my most prized posession. I look forward to showcasing their many talents!
Happy surfing to you and yours!
Desiree Spang
Resource Specialist
