The Area School staff and Business Office staff came together one afternoon to relax, have fun, and enjoy each other’s company. Everyone had a great time painting, laughing, and getting to know one another better. This activity was part of the PERMAH initiative that CGRESD offers to all employees.

Students at Beaverton schools were recently introduced to Stop Motion Animation by REMC 5 Director Joe Trommater. Students used modified laptops to create videos by taking many pictures to create the illusion of motion. If you are interested in this for your classroom, contact Joe (jtrommater@cgresd.net)! #CGRESD #ourstory

You know it was a fun day in Speech when the therapy room looked like a mess!
Preschool students practiced their speech sounds, answered questions, identified prepositions and animals, and built pre literacy skills using a sensory bin activity paired with a book. Assistive technology for seating was also used, featuring the red wobble seat. #CGRESD #ourstory

AAC comes in all shapes and sizes, low tech to high tech. Clare-Gladwin RESD staff fit students who benefit with systems that best meet their needs. There is no prerequisite to using AAC, and it does not hinder verbal communication. Rather, it's a bridge to functional communication and finding a voice! #CGRESD #ourstory

October is AAC Awareness Month! 💜

AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) helps give a voice to those who communicate in different ways. This could be through pictures, devices, symbols, or gestures. AAC opens the door to connection, learning, and independence!

Everyone deserves a voice. This month, let’s celebrate all the different ways people communicate and spread the message that communication is for everyone.

REMC 5 will be hosting Educational Technology sessions in a few weeks. Sessions will be held in two locations and are free to all REMC 5 districts. Participants may attend at either site, regardless of their ISD.

The sessions are designed with teachers in mind, though instructional coaches, administrators, and media center staff will also find them valuable.

Attendees will also have the chance to explore new items in the REMC 5 Lending Library. In addition, REMC 5 will be giving away some of the “retired” items from the library that have served faithfully over the years.

Please consider sharing this opportunity with your buildings.
