📚 Understanding Asynchronous Days for Our Young Learners! 🏫
Dear Elementary Parents,
We want to help you understand what an asynchronous day means for our little ones!
🔍 What is an Asynchronous Day?
An asynchronous day is when students learn at their own pace without live classes. This may include completing assignments, watching videos, or working on fun projects!
🕒 Why is it Important?
Flexibility: Kids can choose when to do their work!
Self-Paced Learning: They can take the time they need to understand the material.
Independence: It helps them become responsible learners.
📝 Tips for Success:
Create a Fun Learning Space: A cozy spot can make learning enjoyable!
Stay Involved: Check in with your child and ask about their activities.
Encourage Breaks: Remind them to take breaks to play and recharge!
Together, we can make asynchronous days fun and productive!

Last night we hosted a literacy Booknic (book + picnic) at the Nunnery.📖 🧺We had a wonderful turnout by our parents, students and staff! We heard lots of conversations around READING! Comprehension questions were asked, laughter was heard, & Kona Ice was eaten! Can't wait to see you at the next parent night!
Absences in the early grades add up. Who is affected? Why does it matter? What we can do! #schooleveryday #attendancematters #commit #attendanceawareness #everydaycounts #nunnbetter
WGN: Don't let the rain stop you! We have moved the Booknic inside! See you at 5!
W. G. Nunn Family: At this time we are having temporary issues with our phones! We cannot receive incoming calls. We are sorry for the inconvenience!
W. G. Nunn Family - We can't wait to see you tomorrow at 5 pm! Don't forget to grab your Kona Ice at the event (prices vary). A big thanks to Park Avenue Church for providing dinner for everyone (first come, first served)!
🥼🧪👨🏽🔬Our 5th graders here a WG Nunn have Science Lab Wednesdays! Every week students go to the science lab with Ms. DeWeese and their science teachers to help bring science to life with hands on labs and lessons! This week students built a retaining wall model to show how humans can help the earth by slowing down or stopping erosion from occurring by engineering man made structures. Way to work hard 5th graders and Ms. Deweese! #sciencerocks #stem #erosion #building #handson #nunnbetter
Have you ever wanted to meet a local author or writer? This Saturday, the Turner Center is hosting a Literary Fair from 10 AM - 2 PM. There will be author talks, book giveaways to the 1st 75 families, and would be a great family day! #turnercenter #literaryday #authortalks #bookgiveaway
Today was a big day for our future "PBIS Student Patrol" team. The wonderful Home Depot was kind enough to donate these safety vests for the future work of our squad! #cpie #thehomedepot #safetypatrol #nunnbetter

Please make plans accordingly!
Absenteeism is a lost opportunity to learn. We can’t afford to think of absenteeism as merely a lack of compliance with school rules.
Parents and families are essential partners in promoting good attendance because they have the bottom-line responsibility for making sure their children get to school every day. Just as parents should focus on how their children are performing academically, they have a responsibility to set expectations for good attendance and to monitor their children’s absences, so that missed days don’t add up to academic trouble.

Today we had our PBIS Kickoff for grades PreK, 2nd-5th! Students went over the ROAR expectations, modeled the expectations for their classmates, and participated in an obstacle course. Teachers also participated in an obstacle course (inflatable style), modeled expectations (the wrong way), and were given the opportunity to win prizes. Next week grades K-1st will have their PBIS Kickoff. #nunnbetter #pbis #roar #kickoff #responsible #ontask #awareofselfandothers #respectful
