Sunday, March 22, 2020 Week 1 Closure Update

Hello students and families, I hope you are all doing well under these strenuous circumstances. Last week at Bryant, I helped prep chrome books for students and was hopeful that any students who needed one for home use would take advantage of picking one up.

In my last blog post, I outlined what assignments students will work on during school closure. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me directly (rather than post a comment on this blog). My email is tahar@dearbornschools.org. I will be posting the assignments completion in gradebook every week, however, they will not show up in marking period 3. In fact, I will be placing them in marking period 4 and you will not be able to see them until marking period 3 ends (March 31). These online assignments are meant to help you continue your learning and will be checked for completion. It is not meant to overwhelm or overload, and realistically, if you were in school, you would be working on math for 100 minutes a day at school and I have provided an outline of what you can work on to use this time to do so at home. Ultimately, everyone’s home lives are different and I hope all of you are doing well and staying healthy. If you haven’t started, I will be individually emailing parents to answer any questions and to help with access or any other issues, if I can be of help.
