Our Weekly Goals - Q2W1

Our Weekly Goals

Q2W1

We have did it!! We have made it to quarter 2. Please use the checklist to verify you have finished the assignments required. There should be no need to ask what else is left to finish if the checklist is completed. I will still let parents know Friday mornings, per usual, what I still need. Please keep in mind this does not list all the assignments they should work on, but it does include the assignments needed in order to participate in Fun Friday.  Thank you for your help.

I will be out Friday, but I will still send out messages in the morning about what is left and will be participating in Fun Friday (Estimated time for Fun Friday is later at 2:00pm but may run longer).

Makeup Week


This Week for Everyone:
  • 5 iReady Lessons (total with last week, if any were done.) If you have 5 done already last week, you do not need to do any more! You need to have a total of 5 lessons passed total from last week and this week.
  • 1 iXL recommended skill a day (total of 5)

For Some:
I will be reaching out to some students/parents of students who need to make up work. This includes retaking tests, or completing assignments from the previous weeks (if they were not done.) If you would like to know what you have missing, please check out your child's gradebook on Vportal. Any grade below a 70 will have the chance to be retaken (except for the diagnostic.)

Our Weekly Goals

Q4W3


Dear Parents,

We have made it 2 weeks already of eLearning, and I hope you are finally finding your groove! I have uploaded the lesson plans, including the activity checklist. I have tried highlighting important details in different colors so they stand out, and you don't miss them!

I have alloted some time within this week's lesson plans in making up previous work, as the activities are very important for success. The only truly optional activity is the STEM activity. Everything else is created specifically for your child and to both teach and support their learning. Therefore, it is very important that you try and complete all activities listed unless otherwise specified.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

Our Weekly Goals Q4W1 & Q4W2 - UPDATED

Distance Learning



Dear Parents,

I have been asked how you can support your students at home during this time. I am including my lesson plans and assignments for the students for the next two weeks. Normally I always show the standards and standard IDs in my lesson plans. Due to it overwelming the plans, I have removed them from parental view so you can focus just on the lessons to do. Please ignore the dates listed on the lesson plans as they were planned before the extended break. Focus on downloading per week. (The accurate dates are listed next to the download.)

Yes, you may work ahead, but please do not work behind. Everything is due by that Friday, but you may complete both weeks at once, should you be highly motivated to do so. I am available all through out the day for phone call, text, and planned conference via zoom. (Conferences may be requested as well.)

COMMUNICATION


Due to the need for communication (to be quicker) I am switching ALL parental communication to REMIND. This allows push to text notifications so I get an immediate text message to my phone from you and vice versa. It also allows phone calls, should you have ANY questions. I have already gone ahead and "added" parents to remind. (You should have received a text message) If you have not, please join http://www.remind.com/  with classroom code: @c2cek4k

If anything changes, I will let you know immediately.

Changes to iReady Expectations

Students will be focusing on completing and passing 5 iReady lessons in Math a week. Have your child show you the "You've passed" message so you are aware of their completed lesson. If students are focused and engaged in their work, it should take them approximately 45 minutes to complete two lessons. This may take them longer to complete if they having a hard time focusing.

iReady Challenge

The child with the MOST passed iReady lessons upon our return will receive a POSTIVE REFERRAL and a LUNCH BUNCH with MOVIE with Mrs. Vaughn. (1 from each homeroom class.) Therefore, if you have time to complete and pass an iReady lesson every day, please do that. 

OPTIONAL SOURCES

The students love playing the following programs. Some know their user IDs, many probably forgot as it was freshly introduced last quarter. If you child is interested in playing the following games, please message me on REMIND and I will get their passwords for them.
  • Code.org (Students were learning coding and working on projects)
  • Duolingo (Students were practicing learning Spanish)
  • Prodigy (Students have fun learning math!)
  • ABC Mouse (I can create a free account) up to 2nd grade. For students who are at a 3rd grade level (please check to verify with me) then I can send you instructions on how to sign up for a LEARNING ACADEMY account for free.
When they have "down time" but still have screen time, encourage them to use these websites.
