Updates During Week One of Distance Learning


  • Reading responses will be suspended for the time being.  Students should still be reading 30 minutes per night, but at this time, an assignment will not be attached to the reading. This will be revisited when we return to school OR at a later date.
  • It is important that when your son/daughter completes their work that they check back for feedback.  I am providing feedback, yet I am not finding that students are going back to fix what needs correcting.  Feedback is imperative to the learning process.
  • Please have your children review the Screencastify that I create nightly within Google Classroom that previews the next day's work.  This is important because that way when I "meet" with your children on Google Meets, we can focus on the actual work rather than solely going over directions.
  • The Google Meets sessions have gone very well. Students have been respectful and they are participating and asking good questions.
Thank you for all of your support and positive feedback throughout this process :)
