Here’s Friday (2/19/2021)

Here is our schedule for Friday. Tomorrow, I’m hoping to have some beginning information out to you about what things will look like on March 1st.  I’m slowly getting a handle on what to tweak, what to maintain and what to totally redesign. I think. We’ll see.

Also, this is just a reminder that next week, there will be no instructional block 3. Students will still have asynchronous work, but this will be a great time to start building some good work habits for our AM/PM schedule, as during that schedule students will have half the day to complete asynchronous work during a time where I will not be available to provide reminders, guidance or support. Next week would be a great week to work with your student to discuss what your expectations are of them, how they can get support from you and ways to organize their work and time.

We will have one final supply pick up next Wednesday more for ALL students. Several students told me today that they thought we were done with supply pick ups. That is not accurate.  Supply picks will continue after next week for those students learning remotely.

And thank you to those of you reading this, too. I appreciate you.

Ms. I
