Activities:
3. Parents are informed of upcoming student assessments
during "Back To School Night" At this time, parents
are introduced to the website using a Smartboard for
demonstration purposes. A brief demonstration is presented to
parents and an explanation of how students should complete
the activities at home, with their guidance. Parents who may not
have access to a computer will be guided to use the computers at
our local public library. |

informing them of the specific sites the students are required
to complete at home. Parents will assess their student's
progress using the Student Rubric within the website.

activities, the teacher will again assess the students using the
sites and Student Rubric included in the website. Depending upon
the results of the Rubric given by the teacher, parents may be
asked to review the websites or may be assigned another specific
group of activities on the Parent Resource Page, within the website, to complete with their
