Math
*Be sure students are logged into their school Google account when selecting any link from the Math Choice Boards.
Students are also encouraged to maintain their math skills by working on self-selected math tasks that represent a variety of concepts from the designated choice board for math. This summer's math focus is puzzles and riddles. A minimum of five math activities are to be completed this summer. Select the appropriate math choice board below:
Padlet
Upper elementary and middle school literacy and math choice boards ask students to create a post on Padlet. Simply click on the link in the choice board that will direct students to Padlet. Students must log in to Padlet using their school Google account. All students are expected to post appropriately and entries will be monitored.
About Padlet
Padlet (formerly Wallwisher) is a free application to create an online bulletin board that you can use to display information for any topic. You can add text, images, links, videos, and more. Simply click on the pencil in the bottom right of the board then add your message. Remember to add your name to the post as well. All posts will be reviewed by a teacher before it appears on the board.
Online Etiquette
The ETSD summer Padlets are available for all students in the school community, grades K-5 at the elementary level or 6-8 at the middle school level. As a student in the district, access to the Padlets is a privilege and you are expected to be considerate of all students in the school who will be participating over the summer months. Your entries will be reviewed and approved by a teacher before being posted on the site. Therefore, there will be a delay from when you write/submit to when it appears on the Padlet for others to view. Any inappropriate submissions will not be approved and will be forwarded to the building principal for follow-up in September.
Here are a few rules to follow when blogging or commenting/responding:
- The use of online posting is considered an extension of your classroom/school community.
- Do not share personal information.
- No text talk - write/speak in full sentences and read/listen your comments back carefully before submitting.
- Make sure your entry stays on topic and is about the required activity.
- If you use media from another source, be sure to properly cite the creator of the original work.
