Snow days: When we lose power or wifi, there are a few things you can still do. You can read a book, write a story, follow a recipe, play a board game, use materials around the house to build something. Here is a picture of Bear this summer with his friend Nova. Bear is my rescue horse. He can't be ridden because of an old injury from his previous life but he is happy to be with his herd in a safe environment.
With 2020 behind us, we can look at the new year as a chance to use all we learned over the fall to further our learning. I am really excited to be able to use the new resources we have found and continue our learning. We now know that even though it is difficult, we can learn in a remote setting.
I wanted to congratulate everyone for making it through to winter break! I know I am doing a victory dance! During break I hope you all get a chance to get outside and reconnect with nature even if it is just sitting on your balcony or in your backyard. Please feel free to go onto Clever and use Epic and Pixton.
Usually my services tend to end a week before the end of school. Because of the unique situation we have and that we had a prolonged period where there was no new learning going on, I am continuing my services up to the end of the school year.
Progress reports will go home on June 18th and will look different than usual. There will not be data points but more of a narrative with input from parents, gen ed teachers and support staff. I will be available to answer any questions you might have about progress and what next year will look like during the summer. To access my academic websites, please go to my clever classroom A. Voigt. On there I have links to :

Hello Families, I wanted to let you know that I will try to be present at your child's conference. If I am unable to attend due to a schedule conflict and you would like to speak to me about your child's progress, please let me know and we can schedule another time to meet.
