Monday’s slides are available here and are also on Schoology. Please be advised that old assignments can no longer be made up/resubmitted. Beginning this year, assignments have due dates that will need to be adhered to. Assignments will be locked after they expire. Please be sure to review your daily assignments and complete your daily work accordingly,

Copy notes down in your ELA notebook for this unit:

Families, tomorrow is your school supply pick up. Please see your Home School blog for times and locations. There will not be another pick up time and date planned until March. Any issues, please reach out to your school and keep me apprised. All students are expected to complete their school work promptly and they need their books to do so. All students are expected to already have their Unit 4 Benchmark book AND their Unit 3/4 math books. Those will be used beginning tomorrow.

Issues submitting? Some students have continued issues submitting even after peer and teacher intervention. This is a situation that is on the student to rectify. If you need assistance, please call the Tech help desk at 313-827-8400.

Tomorrow students will be reflecting on their grades and assignments (found in Schoology) and emailing ME and their PARENT their reflection. As always parents, I appreciate your help and commitment to reviewing your child’s status with them. Semester grades are due this month and report cards should be sent home by the end of January.

NWEA testing will occur next week for both Math and Reading. This is a VERY important test to see where your child is at and for them to demonstrate their growth so far. Students will need to get enough sleep, plenty to eat, and be prepared to work their hardest to complete their work. Be sure to take your time to complete the test as this is NOT a race. I know you can do it! We will discuss the test later in the week so that you are better prepared.

Learning Labs are cancelled for Monday as of now as I am having connectivity issues at my home and have to work remotely. I will let you know if there is an issue any other day this week and appreciate your understanding.

Today is the last day before the Holiday Winter Break! School will resume on 1/4/21

On 1/4/21 Schools will be having their SUPPLY PICK UP. Please follow your Home school’s Blog to see what times/which door they are providing the pick ups from. Students will be receiving Unit 5-7 Benchmark books, as well as a Fraction Helper paper – Students should ALREADY have their Module 3/4 Math Books. ALL STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO PICK UP THEIR SUPPLIES. Any issues please reach out to me and your home school for assistance.
