Week 11 of Shutdown

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all well. The end of the year is just a couple weeks away. I have chosen to give you what remains of the school year to complete all tasks that have been assigned to you since the start of the shutdown, if you have not done so yet. Please do your very best to submit all work by the end of this week. I would like to have grades finalized by the start of next week. However, you do have until the 11th of June.

Good luck, and should you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to me via email.

Continue to stay safe.

If you have any questions or concerns, email me.

Please continue to practice your typing through Typing.com, daily (10 to 15 minutes each day), and update your typing tracker when you finish entire lessons. I would like you to share your typing tracker, via Google, with me at the end of this week so that I may check it.

In addition, I would like you to complete lesson 8 and 9 under “Internet Basics”, which is found under “Digital Literacy” on the left side of your screen. Please record your scores on your typing tracker as well. I would like for these scores to me in an area separate from your typing lesson stats.
