Dear Families,

Greetings from Ms. Burnap!  I hope this email finds you well and recharging from the time away from school.  As I mentioned in my previous email before the break, the second quarter is a fresh start for the students so hopefully all will take advantage of that and put his or her best effort into learning and growing.
Google Classroom Codes (if your child isn’t able to get into the classrooms)
  • ELA   5ch6xxs       8:00 -9:30
  • Math  2ivrrj6          9:30 – 11:00
  • Sci/SS  v2inie3      12:00 – 1:30
  • Specials                 1:30 – 2:00
Classroom structure is very much the same as the first quarter.
  • LIVE lesson with a Nearpod
  • Independent Practice
Expectations:
  • Students should be up from bed, dressed, etc. before class starts.
  • Students should be on time to the start of each class.
  • Students should have breakfast done before the 8:00 class and lunch should be planned around the 12:00 class so students can attend class instruction, activities and work.
  • Students should have his or her camera on the entire portion of the LIVE lesson (minus asking to use the restroom or if there’s an emergency need at home to turn it off briefly.)
  • Students’ microphones should be muted unless directed by the teacher to unmute the microphone to talk.
  • Students’  independent work is due by 8:00 AM the following day.
  • Parents and guardians, you can assist in making sure your child is completing his or her work, by looking at what (s)he has turned in, not just whether or not (s)he has hit the “Turn In” button.  You will be given notice when this happens via email or phone.
Quarter 2 materials distribution has been extended.  If you were not able to get to Desert Meadows on Thursday or Friday before break to drop off quarter 1 materials and get the new materials for quarter 2, you have another opportunity.  Tuesday (10/13) and Thursday (10/15) from 3:30-6pm each day.
Thank you for all you are doing to support your child’s education.  Enjoy what is left of the fall break.
Sincerely,
Ms. Burnap
