Congratulations to our most recent GED graduate!
Lacy passed her final two exams this week after studying on an online homework platform and attending classes with Sara at our Fergus Falls site. Good luck with you next chapter, Lacy!
Today our English Language Learners discovered hot apple cider. This delicious warm drink was an exciting new experience. One student went to the whiteboard to try to map out the difference between apple juice and apple cider for his classmates. Days like today bring warm fuzzies to the hearts, minds, and stomachs of the Moorhead Adult Education team.
The Moorhead Adult Education team attended the 2023 ABE Fall Regional event in Bemidji on October 5-6, 2023. The event afforded multiple options for professional development in teaching English, digital literacy, and High School Equivalency content. Moorhead instructor, Casey Hatlevoll, led a session on math practices and Tammy Schatz facilitated a session for the regional manager team.
A highlight for Adult Education Week was the recognition of the first graduate of the Clay County Correctional Facility ABE program. Jared was able to complete his General Equivalency Development (GED) diploma in a very short time. Thank you to Sheriff Mark Empting and the Clay County Correctional team for supporting this work!
The "Adult Education Week" celebration continues at Vista Center for Education. Today we are enjoying refreshments and showing a few examples of how the volunteers in the program impact our learners. Samantha is leading a small group of evening beginning ESL students and Susan is teaching a multi-level art experience class to the ESL and High School Equivalency classrooms. Thank you, volunteers, for the impact that you have on the Moorhead Adult Education consortium!
Moorhead Adult Education offers free digital literacy (computer) classes to all enrolled students. This includes teacher-led and independent study models of instruction in: keyboarding basics, Basic Computer Skills, Internet Basics, Using Email, Windows, Mac OS, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Sheets, Social Media, Information Literacy, Supporting K-12 Distance Learning, Career Search Skills, and Your Digital Footprint. Contact Rebecca at rhunt@moorheadschools.org for more information and class schedule.
Adult Education Week is September 17-23, 2023 and an opportunity to share the message of what this work looks like within our region.
Volunteers are a tremendous asset to the students and staff of the Moorhead consortium and are trained to assist in various capacities. This includes 1:1 tutoring, leading a small group, teaching a class, preparing student materials for the teacher, or assisting in the office.
If you would like to learn more about volunteering at one of our sites (Moorhead, Hawley, Barnesville, Breckenridge, Wheaton, and Fergus Falls) please join us at one of the 2 volunteer information sessions on Wednesday, September 27, 2023. More information or separate training for one of the satellite sites is available by, contacting Tammy at tschatz@moorheadschools.org or 218.284.3460.
Thank you to Jen and Dani who shared ECFE information and resources with our ABE group today. It was fun for us to learn more about programs for our littles and receive items to take home to or our children ages 0- 5.
This will be repeated for our evening ESL students tonight and again tomorrow morning for those who missed out.
