Take a look at this week’s calendar. The structure is the same, but some of the activities have changed. The focus is on reading, writing, math and creative time. Click on the link below to see the calendar.
I am hearing from some of the students and the parents that the workload is too much. I made some adjustments. Instead of going on Mobymax, I want you to go on Edmentum (black e) like we do in class. You access that through Clever. Also, I shortened the time that I want you on there from 45 mins to 30 mins. As of right now no more social studies until next week.

Parents please take the survey to let us know your technology needs. If you have a neighbor or friend that is a student of McDonald and does not have a computer please let me know. Click on the link below to take the survey:
Good morning and welcome to our first week of remote (online) learning. For the next three weeks we will be conducting class from home. Routines are crucial for children, so I have included a schedule for the week. Our daily school schedule includes academic time as well as recess, lunch, and time for specials as well. This schedule is just a suggestion. I have 2 children in school myself who will all now be taught at home with 3 different curriculums, so I do understand that time has to be managed between the electronics for all of your children. I miss you all already!
Also, please watch Class Dojo closely as I know our specials teachers will be performing class time online as well. This includes music, gym, media, enrichment, and art.
I will be monitoring students’ progress online every day and I will contact you through Class Dojo with any concerns. If you have any questions regarding what is expected or need help logging into any of our online platforms, please send me a Class Dojo message. This will yield the quickest response. Weekly schedule is found below. Just click the blue link.
The teachers have been working really hard to create assignments for your child to do while away from school. Please follow the following directions for each subject. Even though the assignments aren’t due until later, please do not wait until the last minute. We will be checking in daily to see that you are doing your work! To access MobyMax and Google Classroom, the students need to go to:
