If your child is on an IEP please have them check the Personalized Learning folder first each day. After that the student can look at the other assignments in the Math, Language Arts and SSW folder. Please, don't let all the material overwhelm you. I know I've said this at least once, DO WHAT YOU CAN. We are providing a lot of material and that is because many students are bored during the day. Please don't feel like your child has to do every bit of it. I hope that helps with any stress you are feeling.
SCHOOLOGY It works, it's broken, it works, it works now it doesn't. Schoology is working on it. PLEASE tell your child not to email us telling us it doesn't work. We know it. When it doesn't work they can still use the SPEED DRILL APP, Freckle and ixl.com assignments. They can also read a book. On Friday at 10:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. for my homeroom class. I will open a ZOOM room and the students will find a link through schoology. By putting the link through that it will be safe along with me setting up some safeguards before it's opened. If you and your child are available, you can join me and the classmates for an hour of discussion. If you do not want your face or your child's face to be shown there is a feature to disable your camera so only the name is shown. Look in the DISTANCE LEARNING FOLDER and find ZOOM MEETING. Inside the folder will be the directions and the link to the meeting. Many of the classes are doing this weekly and I want your child to have the same opportunity to connect again with me and their classmates. I'll keep all the microphones muted to begin as it helps for everyone to hear. When someone wants to speak the student can click on the "reaction" icon and click the hands clapping. I will call on them and then unmute their microphone. This also eliminates background noise. EXPECTATIONS FOR ZOOM MEETING: I expect everyone to be dressed appropriately (no pajamas , and girls please have the curlers out of your hair by then.) If someone is not on the PATH I will have them leave our group. I don't think that will happen because this group of students are one of the finest classes I have ever taught. And finally I received this from the office .
