Parents and educators understand the importance of parental controls on student devices, but keeping teens safe while using smartphones and tablets can be an enormous challenge. Fortunately, both Apple and Android devices have some great built-in options that can be customized to fit individual needs. These parental control tools can help parents make sure students only see age appropriate content so they can keep students safe in the online world. https://smartsocial.com/post/parental-control?utm_source=Smart+Social+Mailing+List&utm_campaign=bfb23b0b9d-apple-vip-members_COPY_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_40b34a3ccb-bfb23b0b9d-196309228&mc_cid=bfb23b0b9d&mc_eid=5998e73a6c?org=salemsd

Gingerbread House day was a day of sweet creations in Ms. Simmons' Class! 🏠✨

This week 4th grade students participated in Secret Santa, with a twist! Each student picked a name out of a hat and created an acrostic poem with their Secret Santa's name. The students worked hard at finding kind adjectives to describe each other and did a great job keeping it a secret! They shared their poems this week and it was wonderful to see the students spread some kindness throughout the class! #secretsantapoem #spreadingkindness #4thgrade #acrosticpoems
