Hello Lakeside Families,
The MSD of Warren Township is evaluating our technology needs and how to better serve our families and students in the district. Since iPads and Chromebooks require a WiFi connection, we are interested to know whether our students have access to WiFi at home. Please take just a few moments to complete the survey below:

We had a GREAT 1st week of Learn at Home activities! It was great getting to see so many familiar faces connecting with each other! I look forward to being able to visit with more students in Zoom classrooms next week! Just a reminder that our Learn at Home Lessons and choice boards will be available for students at 8 am on Monday morning at bit.ly/msdwarrenlearnathome.
Although we have enjoyed connecting virtually with 95% of our students this week, we all still look forward to the day we can be face to face again. Please take a moment and share the video linked below with your student. We miss our Lakeside students!

Play at Home Playbook: This game guide has a variety of games and activities families can do in their own home, with little to no equipment necessary.
Live Virtual Recess: A Playworks Coach leading a morning warm-up, a midday game, and an afternoon cooldown each day. Anyone can tune into Facebook Live Monday- Friday at 12:00pm, 2:00pm, and 4:00pm EST and play along.
Daily schedule - Facebook Live Recess

Families can also connect with us on Facebook (@makereccesscount), Twitter (@playworks), and Instagram (@playworksrecess). Understanding that not all families have access to internet capabilities, if there is an option of being able to print the game guides and distribute them with meals for the students, please let us know how we can support this.
