Dear Parents,
I hope you and your family are safe and healthy. Friday we completed the first week of our new Continuity plan guidelines and I am seeking your feedback. Below is a short survey to help us better understand the needs of the community as a whole. The collected results will allow us to make some well-informed decisions moving forward. It is anonymous and greatly appreciated.

Stay well and take care

Google Meet: Our Google Meets for this week have been canceled as due to a temporary issue the district has asked us to refrain from having live meetings until further notice. I will be training on a new platform for meetings on Thursday morning. I will update you as to the status of the meetings. This week I will be recording sessions for you and attaching them to the student’s email. Please see the memo from the superintendent regarding this matter. We will be switching to a new platform for the live meetings only, which will take a short while to learn and prepare. In the meantime, please watch the recorded lessons and email and ask questions. I am here to help. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XRPvpmUYfCR_sRq14PSTYoyatM8n2SiccuMqG2ZwzC0/edit?usp=sharing
The district has had the Continuity of Learning Plan approved. It is important for parents/guardians to read it so you will know how things have changed since we first began remote learning. If you go to the elementary section it explains how grades will be done and what is expected of students for the rest of the year. You can see it here: https://dearbornschools.org/services/dearborn-public-schools-continuity-of-learning-plan/.
Students, if you are turning in an assignment on Google classroom that was assigned 4/20 – 4/24 please email me that you have turned it in. (This DOES NOT apply to students who are up to date with assignments.) Google classroom doesn’t notify me when you hand it in. This is not necessary for current assignments that were made this week, 4/27 – 5/1. The most important thing right now is to start completing the work from April 20 through the rest of the year. I will not be accepting work from the week of 4/20 after Friday 5/1 so please make sure you have it done before then unless there is a health or technology issue that you contact me about.
Also, some assignments are created by me and some are created by Mrs. Stetz. You should be doing all of them. This is similar to what we did in school but you might not have been aware of it.
*********************Don’t forget that Mrs. Baloga, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Goeke, Mrs Ackerman, Mrs. Poisson, and Mr. Kwiecien have assignments on Google classroom for you to work on. Watch for Google meetings with these teachers!!************
Math
Today we are working on the Module 5 unit test. Please go to google classroom and take the assessment. You can print it and do it on paper, but you must put your answers in. If you are able, I would like to see your work. If you can attach it to the google assignment or take a picture and email it to me I would appreciate it. I will not be able to grade your test unless you type your answers onto the Google Classroom assignment and hit turn in on the assignment. Please do that. Please complete this on your own by tomorrow at 3. I want to get them checked and back to you as soon as possible.
You can use these videos to review two different methods for multiplying mixed numbers.
