TEAM NEWS

SCHEDULES: We had our first all virtual week as you know. We are facing internet signal loss, microphone ins and outs, smiling faces in the meets when we get there, chats that are filled with thoughtful answers, and a learning curve that is pretty steep but flattening every day! There are HOTSPOTS available for families if internet connection is a problem. Feel free to email helpdesk@mmuusd.org with any questions you may have. You can also call us @ 802-899-4690. Shout out to Ms. Roberge who came to the rescue on Wednesday and fixed the World Language link troubles! These schedules are updated in our ION Community Google Classroom but here they are again.   ATOMS        BONDS LIBRARY happened for the first time this week. ION is famous on Mrs. Thompson’s BRMS Library Instagram page! Mrs Thompson and Mrs Hernandez have bent over backwards to give books individually wrapped in brown paper packages (not tied up in string), a cart filled with goodies, incredible knowledge and a Bitmoji virtual library with links that is to die for! Check it out!   Morning meetings with Ms Roberge, Mx. Erickson and Mr Martin began this week. It’s so fun to see everyone at these fun filled times. We are so lucky to have such a great group! It’s a great way for us to start our day and keep connected.  Hungry? Breakfast bags, snack bags (aka breakfast bags held until 9-10 when the first pangs of hunger hit) and lunches are all free. Look on the BRMS webpage for menus.  Ms. Roberge and Mx. Erickson will be checking in by phone with families this month. Think about what is working and what you are wondering so when we talk we can really use our time well. We look forward to having quick and really important conversations with everyone. Please check out our Instagram and Blog for some fun photos and videos of our in person days together!
