The following information was emailed home to all parents:
Dear Parents,
Happy New Year!
(and what a way to start....)
Here is all the information for next week (January 10 - 14). I've tried to explain things as clearly as possible. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
For students staying at home:
They will follow their regular timetable, with times slightly adjusted:
9:00 - Period 1
9:30 - Period 2
10:00 - Period 3
10:30 - Period 4
11:00 - 1:00 - Break
1:00 - Period 5
1:30 - Period 6
2:00 - Period 7
2:30 - Period 8
*To make things easier, I have scheduled one morning Teams meeting (for periods 1 - 4) and one afternoon Teams meeting (for periods 5 - 8).
*During these periods, there will be a mix of teaching and worktime. If students need additional time to complete their work, they could use the midday break time or their afterschool time.
*The Phys Ed teacher will jump on our Teams meeting to teach Health.
*The Band, Art and Practical Arts teachers will schedule their own meetings on Teams.
*A daily schedule, with all the required work, will be posted in the Homeroom section of Teams as well as on the class blog.
*I have set up an individual channel for each student in the Homeroom section of Teams where students can ask questions.
*Students should attend all of their daily meetings and be prepared with paper and something to write with.
