Happy Friday Everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe and healthy. Thank you to all of you that have been working on assignments this week. I know it is a crazy situation and I appreciate all the work and effort you have been putting in. Thank you to everyone for being so patient and understanding during this time. It has certainly been a lot of learning on my end this week to move to distance learning. With that being said, I have a few updates and announcements to share regarding our class moving into next week.
I KNOW THIS IS LENGTHY BUT PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE
Daily Lesson Time: Beginning Monday, I will have “office hours” daily from 12-2. During that time we might meet virtually through Google Hangouts, Google Chat, email, or through comments on assignments in Google Classroom. Students can ask questions, we will review assignments, and go through lessons.
Communication: Parents if you need to contact me for additional help or resources please feel free to reach out through email at any time.
Assignments: Each day, students will have assignments in most of their Google Classrooms. Please make sure they check in the classrooms each day to find assignments. ASSIGNMENTS WILL BE GRADED AND RECORDED IN THE GRADEBOOK FOR THEIR FOURTH QUARTER GRADE.
They have an Article a Day Classroom, Reading Warm-up Classroom, Reading Classroom, Writing Classroom, Math Classroom, and a Science/Social Studies Classroom.
Attendance: In order for students to be counted as attending class, they need to make sure they are completing and submitting his/her Article a Day each day of class. They should also complete and submit all other daily assignments, but this is how we are mandated to take student attendance each day.
Technology: If you need assistance with technology please reach out to me and I can point you in the right direction for help.
Special Areas/Special Education: More information to come on office hours.
I look forward to “seeing” as many of you as possible on Monday during our first class meet at noon!
Have a great weekend! I miss you all and hope to see you soon!
