To allow MySchool parents to easily and all time follow up their children’s academic progress, we purchased ManageBac where teachers send their weekly plans, announcements (trips, tests, quizzes, share resources, upload videos and photos…) and parents only have the login at anytime, anywhere in the world to have an idea about what their kids are doing in the school. Moreover, ManageBac contains all students e-portfolios allowing them to keep evidence of their learning and be shared with their parents who can write note and comments to teachers and children.
At MySchool, we use ManageBac for reporting too. Teachers write their periodical descriptive reports and can be shared immediately with the guardians.
We think that ManageBac is an effective tool to keep parents informed and to maintain open communication between the school community.
Some may wonder why students should learn to write in cursive in the age of tablets and iPads.
While electronic devices have added an element of convenience to the writing process, evidence is mounting that putting pen to paper has benefits that typing cannot replace.
At MySchool, we believe that “when students write confidently and legibly, their academics as a whole seem to improve”. The cursive handwriting program offered to all our students from grades 1 to 10.
