Always remind your child, to read daily for 15 minutes to build their vocabulary.
I have had many issues with students wanting to use the bathroom when I am teaching or going over homework. I remind students daily that we meet and have time that they may use the bathroom at the given break time. Also, they may put their two fingers up to form a V shape to use the bathroom.
Also, another issue we are having is the listening part. When their cameras are off it is taking them longer to get back to the computer to unmute and ask for the question repeated. When you don’t face the computer or have your headsets on then you will not be following along. We have to remember you have to sit up straight in front of the computer with all of our supplies next to us. So we do not leave the computer to find our supplies. Always have a bottle water and our snack next to use, so we can always next to use and not look for it.

We will start our meetings with everyone muted, so they must raise their hands to ask or answer a question. Most importantly sit in 1 spot and your computer should not be moving. Your body should not be moving. NO dancing, making noises, or making funny faces. DO NOT interrupt class so keep yourself muted.
Parents we are all learning on how to get our students to learn and enjoy learning at home virtually. Please go over the norms and expectations of being online and rules they should be following.
9/16/2020 Schoology Practice
Dear Oakman Parents and Students,
I would like to thank all parents for their patients with the new learning process that we are trying to teach our students. It is a time that we all need patients because we are teaching students on how to use Zoom and Schoology. Once your child learns the process of getting on Zoom it will get easier. I know that some students have a hard time hearing me, but I won’t know unless they email me or call the school to let me know. I am trying different things to allow the students to hear me. However, if you have internet that is not strong then they will have a hard time hearing me and I hearing your child. We are working to make this an easy and fun way for our students to stay connected to learn.

Assignments should always be turned in on Schoology.

This is the same lesson I posted on the blog. If you have already completed it and emailed it to me, it’s not necessary to submit your picture through Schoology. 😊
A couple tips before you get started on your Toy Photography project:
- Due date will be Tuesday September 22.
- You will need a camera, phone, or Chromebook to take a picture. If you’re unsure on how to take a picture using a Chromebook or how to submit a picture through Schoology, I created a folder on my page called “Helpful tips”. Inside the folder, you will find tutorial videos.
- Please read through the Google Slide and watch the video before you begin.
Please click on the link below to show you how to get on Schoology and how to submit your assignments.

Hi Oakman Parents and Students!!
Today we read a poem and discussed what rhyming words looked like in a poem. Also, we listened to a read aloud online. This is what we listened to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=HsiC1RN73f8&feature=emb_logo
On Schoology the students have two questions to answer (Reading/Writing):
What problem did the Bee face at the beginning of the story?
How did the Buzzy the Bubble’s parents help him solve his problem?
Also on Schoology, the students have Math to send to me. We did lesson 2 together, so I asked them to send me their Exit ticket on Schoology and to get Lesson 2 on Zearn completed.

I have sent videos on how to get to the assignments and how to get to their Science Enrichment. The video’s are on Schoology and the links below:

Hey Oakman Parents and Students,
Due to technical problems we were not able to finish meeting today to get science done.
https://jr.brainpop.com/science/animals/migration/
However, I would like student to think:
What does migration mean?
What are the 2 reasons that would cause animals to migrate to other places?
Also, I sent the students username and password for Zearn to your child’s Schoology email. They will see an envelope at the top the screen. Click on the envelope to get username and password for Zearn. Remind your child not to share their information.

Please don’t forget to share what we did together in class about Bucket Filler. If you would like to watch the book again this is the link:
WHAT IS DUE TODAY??
1. Zearn Lesson 1
2. Schoology assignment: Bucket Filler 9/11/2020
3. Writing: answer the 2 science questions.
What does migration mean?
What are the 2 reasons that would cause animals to migrate to other places?
If you have any technical difficulties or need help: please call 313-827-3003.
Thank you,

9/8/2020 Assignment
Good afternoon,
Today was interesting, because we all saw how much we missed seeing each other. I would like to say that students need to practice more on raising their hands, while mics muted. The teacher will pick on students to speak, so no need to unmute. Lots of noise and we need to practice on waiting for teacher to call on students.
Please go over with parents:

Complete on Schoology:
Please submit 2 sentences using the word a, can
Practice doing page 5 in your Math succeed book and send as audio/video.
Hope to see you guys tomorrow on Schoology for our Zoom meeting at 8:55 am. A new link will be sent, so students can not stay on when teacher is not available.

Thank you,
Ms. Mosed
