RISD SLP Virtual Meeting Place

 Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! With the new update to Boardmaker 7 - There is a new Boardmaker Student Center.  They are working on switching it out in Self Service now!  Your students will need to download the new Student Center application for them to use it!  The old one will remain on their iPads until it is reset but will not be functional.   In your Boardmaker online account under "student management" at the top - you can download a PDF or email family's directions on how to get on the new student center if you have made them an account.  It comes with a QR code so they can easily get on!!   It is towards the bottom of the student management page.   Have a great break!! Tina and Corinne

 We would love to see you and please share with your coworkers who might need to attend!!   https://drive.google.com/file/d/10ZziSmBF84d4zw-toYisCT7_SoSA64vi/view?usp=sharing

Hi everyone! I know a lot of people are struggling with the SLP google drive because it won't let you move copies that you make into your own drive. I found a way around that, and my PLC asked me to share a video. Hope it helps! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nnmqELADbJ9WD2qT-nqKFCt95sRXXmTB/view Delaney Andrews

  Hi all – I can't believe it is November! Below is your November ULS Supplement.  Don't forget - if you CORE things in a different way - please upload them - it is always good to have options!  The theme this month is History - long ago and now!  Check out the Active Learning suggestions and CORE words taken from the curriculum this month.  If you have other Active Learning ideas - please add! We are still adding some materials so make sure you check back periodically because your colleagues might have added something good.   If you CORE any of the Supplemental Activities or Science and Cooking - please share!! We have added a few things from this unit 3 years ago.  Below are the links for the folder and supplements.  As always - please include your ideas and materials so others can use.  SHOUT OUT! - A BIG Shout Out to Sarah Howery (DLC teacher at ACE) who always shares her CORED version of the story!  We appreciate you Sarah...

 Hello, I want to share the Bitmoji room I have use in SmallTALK.  I have created this Bitmoji page so parents can access information about the weekly sound/ phonological process we cover. You will see on the index page a list of the sounds/processes by week. When you click on the weekly sounds, a new room will open. Each room has a variety of links to teach the parents how to make the sound, links for books we will be reading, songs, and anything else I can find that has to do with the weekly sound.  Once I published the page, the link stays the same. I do not have to resend this link each time I update something or add new information. The updates are automatically added. This only gives the parents the ability to view the pages.    SmallTALK index page Here is the link in case the above link does not work: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vQItL3CmtBNUaDrgDIfQ4IpZdNHg64RswO9fsBUVwx-Wk8bUqOmy11cXmpXmc_Ddh_A9Qt-9SUXOBUm/pub?start=false&loop=fa...
