Hello Second Grade Families,

I miss you all and hope that you and your loved ones are staying safe.  We are preparing for instructing our students through Distance Learning.   We will work together to keep our children learning and moving forward.  Please feel free to contact me while we are distance learning Monday - Friday, 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM through Class Dojo like we have been or by email:  esther.rodriguez@marion.k12.fl.us.  I know this is new and we are all learning this adventure together.  If I do not know an answer to a question, I will find a way to get it.  Thank you again for all your support.

Many of the tasks students will be working on are through their student portal.  The students know how to log in into their portal (Marion Desktop) and from there, find where they need to go.  If at any moment your child has any login difficulties or forgot their log in information, please feel free to email me and I will get it out to you.

Please take a moment to navigate through my teacher website and become familiar with it.  All assignments will be posted in the "Assignments" tab and then go from there with further instructions.  

There are resources out for our students to keep them practicing during their time at home.  Outside of the learning packets available online there are also many resources available on your child's Marion Desktop.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we work together on this new educational journey. 

i-Ready is our online learning resource that meets students where they are as far as ability.  Students should be aiming for 45-50 minutes per week on i-Ready Reading and an additional 45-50 minutes on Math.

MyOn is our online library.  It is full of great books at all reading levels.  I would encourage you to have your child read stories at their level everyday for at least 20 minutes. 

Students can access IReady, MyOn, Smarty Ants, Think Central, Social Studies Weekly, and Google Classroom through their MCPS desktop. You can use this link to log in https://www.marionschools.net. If you need the student log in and password information please let me know. 

Sincerely,

Mrs. E. Rodriguez
