Hello! I hope this finds you all well! By now, you should have all received an email from us containing the next work packet. This work should last for the remainder of the year. Included in the packet you will find:
Suggested Daily Schedule – provides structure to the activities students should be working on daily, as well as a specific focus for the day, as well as how they relate to transition. (Daily Living Skills, Personal Hygiene, etc.)
Instructional Packets – three instructional packets + 2 News 2 You Packets to provide daily instruction throughout the remainder of the year. Please pace yourself, 1-2 activities a day is plenty. When you see your daily schedule you will see the other activities you should complete in addition to this.
Healthy Lunch and Exercise Journal – a log so that students can continue learning about food choices and keep up their healthy habits. Students should also aim for 30 minutes of exercise a day whether it be by playing basketball, riding a bike, going for a walk, etc. Please tell us what you did! (Camp Zip is still providing free yoga classes on Tuesdays and Fridays – follow the link on our Facebook page “Dearborn Transition Program”
It’s important that all students work on these packets as we now move from “enrichment activities” to “remote learning”. We will have to document progress and we will be checking in on their progress. If you have not received your packet, or you are not able to print your packet, please let us know through email or remind. I can’t promise a packet to you immediately, but I know the district is working out a way for us to print and mail. We are very thankful that the State is allowing us to continue to teach our students this way rather than having to extend the school year, or the school day. We know it is not the same, but please do your best to complete the work and return it to school in the fall. We miss you all!
We will be in meetings all week this week, there may be more information to share, but until then, we hope everyone is doing well and we will talk to you soon! Please continue to follow us on Facebook for more enrichment ideas.
Take care!
