FROM MARY KAY:
As many of you are aware of the recent passage of A.R.S.15-717.02 Prohibited Instruction, there are still many unanswered questions about what can I teach? I have been in contact with Linda Burrows and Tammy Waller from ADE regarding guidance and they are currently preparing a training for teachers, “Can I Teach This?” for all content areas in grades K – 12 which is scheduled for Thursday, September 16th at 3:30-5:00. The link to register for this training is: https://ems.azed.gov/home/calendar?sd=8825
In the meantime additional guidance to this bill has been offered and can be found at the following link:
The last couple of pages offer some very good tips for instructors and I encourage you to review this document.
- Good news, classes have been rostered and students can begin using DreamBox.
- This year all FUSD K-5 teachers and administrators have access to DreamBox University, on demand PD.
How should students sign-on to DreamBox?
Students will access DreamBox through the Clever app on their iPad. This is a single-sign on portal which will eventually house several web applications. The tech department has created this video to explain how you and your students use Clever as your sign-on. Teachers can also access Clever on their laptops using this url: https://clever.com/in/fusd1
How can you learn more about DreamBox through DreamBox University?
This year all FUSD K-5 teachers and administrators can have access to DreamBox University! There are limited licenses, therefore this is not available for our paraprofessionals.
At DreamBox University, you will find short modules for learning the basics for implementing DreamBox with your students or more advanced topics like using data to form small groups or how to create short- and long-term assignments.
If you complete these off-contract time, these can be used to earn 301 or Salary Advancement Hours. This credit can only be awarded by the hour, not for 15 or 30 minutes so plan to complete more than one module. You can complete the modules at different times.
It is suggested that you begin by completing this set of 4 fifteen-minute modules first.
To access DreamBox University for the first-time, use this link and sign-up. You are creating a new account for this site.
You will need to enter this Access Code: pddr0526
COVID UPDATES
The FUSD Governing Board passed the 2021-2022 school year mitigation plan on July 13, 2021. I encourage you to read through it to ensure that you have a thorough understanding of classroom and school-wide expectations for students and staff.
The district shared a Covid Cheat Sheet with us which may be helpful if/when we have a positive case and need to begin quarantining students.
