Remind--Send Out Instant Reminders

Ever have students come to school the next day and say, "Oh no! I forgot to do my homework!"
Ever have parents say, "Does my child ever have homework to do? They never have any."

REMIND IS YOUR SOLUTION!

I am looking forward to testing out the Remind app this year with my students and parents. All you need to do is download the Remind app on your cell phone.  You set up your class account and all your students and parents have to do is text a number and they will be set up to receive your reminders each day.  You can schedule nightly homework reminders at 7:00 so you no longer have to hear that dreaded excuse! I am so excited to put this app to the test. Here is a quick tutorial explaining Remind  little more.

    Hi Austin,

    I too am going to try out Remind this year. I teach little kids but it will be my push for parent engagement and communication. I hope it really works to keep parents excited about what is happening in my room this year!

    Austin,

    I do use Remind for communicating with my cross-country team and it has made a significant difference in opening the lines of communication between my athletes and their parents. A great resource!
