McDonald Elementary- Ms. White's Kinders

With summer on it's way it is important to be safe in and around the water. We usually have a presentation from the rotary club about water safety with Josh the Otter but we were not able to this year. You can still listen to the story called "Josh the Baby Otter" to learn more about water safety!

North Platte Public Schools - North Platte Public School District Food & Nutrition Services Programs UPDATED - Drive Through Backpack Pickup - Drive Through Breakfast & Lunch Pickup NPPSD is providing free pre-packed breakfast and lunch to children 18 years old and younger. Beginning Wednesday, March 18, 2020, until further notice 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

This is a fun extra practice reading resource that the students love! The app is free for a limited time, if you are interested!

With schools disrupted by coronavirus, we’ve made the app free for a very limited time. Please share this!

As a result of disruption in schools due to coronavirus, we've made Teach Your Monster to Read free across the world, in order to help children learn to read whilst at home.

Our award-winning phonics and reading games have been played over 160 million times and are used by thousands of teachers as part of their phonics and literacy education.

The app has recently been approved by the UK government Department for Education’s Hungry Little Minds campaign to help parents find high quality educational apps for kids.

With children learning from home due to school closures and self-isolation cases, as a not-for-profit, we want to do what we can to mitigate the disruption and help children continue learning. Millions of children use the app every month and we want to make sure every child can access it at home.

**VERY LIMITED TIME SPECIAL OFFER - USUALLY £4.99 / $4.99**

Our app (covering everything from letters and sounds to reading full sentences) is free on Apple today and Amazon from Thursday March 19. It's also free to play on laptops and PCs at teachyourmonstertoread.com and just £0.99 / $0.99 on Google Play Store*.

It is usually £4.99 / $4.99 and it has no in-app purchases or adverts. The special offers will run until Monday March 23rd. We can't guarantee when we'll run this offer again.

Once downloaded, it's free to continue to use on that device even after the promotion has ended.

App store download links:
Apple (free now): apple.co/2V92VL5
Amazon UK (free Thursday): amzn.to/2PjLBiJ
Amazon US (free Thursday): amzn.to/2VgOwfR
Google (£0.99 / $0.99 now): bit.ly/2cohkeR

*Due to Google Play Store policy not allowing a new sale to start within 30 days after the completion date of the last sale, we’re unable to give our app away for free on Google Play Store because we just recently ran a free promotion. For this reason we've priced it at £0.99 / $0.99.

We had so much fun today! The kids each got a hand-knitted hat from me, we had random Christmas songs played throughout the day for music bingo, we had a gift exchange, then we had a grinch theme holiday party where we decorated a friend to make them look like the grinch, watched the grinch movie with grinch juice and cookies, made a grinch ornament, and finished off the day with Christmas carols with everyone in the gym! What a great school family we have! Have a wonderful and merry Christmas! ❤️ McDonald Elementary School
