Instructional Ideas
- For younger learners, use Remind101 to communicate reminders about homework, field trips, events, and more
- Great for important reminders like parent conferences
Classroom Considerations

- When using with elementary learners, ask only the parents to sign-up for the service
- Introduce the service at Back-to-School Night
