Welcome

GRADS is like a classroom without walls. We help our students make connections in their community, find reliable information online and show them how to be lifelong learners throughout their parenting journey. There are also other methods of teaching our students without the traditional textbook. Follow my classroom blog as we stretch the boundaries of teaching and learning.

Important Documents About Baby

Last night my husband was filling out some permission forms so our daughter could fly to Chicago with her BPA team from her high school this week. (I'm as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs!) He asked me if I knew when  Katie had her last tetanus shot? She's 15 now and I thought those days of keep track of all of her baby shots were over but apparently we are not done. We do have a file with medical information but couldn't find anything about Tetanus. (will have to call her pediatrician today). There is a lot of information parents need to keep track of, especially with babies - their growth, sleeping pattern, what they eat, how often you change a wet diaper when they are ill and then all of that medical information.

You are going to keep some of these forms them on your blog for easy reference. These are the steps:

  1. You can go to the document I have linked below, copy the url, 
  2. Open your blog, click "new post", type the name of the document, click "link", paste the url, then publish.
  3. Try it out by viewing your blog post with the document, click on the document and begin making changes. 
  4. Always save your work. You can print when finished then cut the cards and give to family or childcare giver.
