8/24- First Day of Classes!

Post date: Aug 20, 2020 8:26:49 PM

Hello Fifth Grade Families!

Today we will be starting our day as a whole for our class meeting at 8:00AM. Most of today will be going over routines, procedures, and walking students through various websites steps by step. All students will need to be logged in on Google Classroom already to make this transition smooth. In between logistics, we will be doing a couple of fun "getting to know you" activities that also helps students get use to submitting assignments and communication with teachers!

Students will be on Zoom on and off throughout the day. For example, I will start our first lesson at 8:20AM to go over logistics, I will communicate to them times they are suppose to log back on to join Zoom again after a break. The Zoom link will be found on our Google Classroom under "Zoom Links." All mandatory Zooms are done after 12:00; however, if students need help or have questions for me, I will be available on Zoom until 3:00!

The first week of classes will look slightly different than the rest of distance learning! The Zooms will be shorter and more towards the beginning of the day this week with more optional "office hours" towards the end of the day to help troubleshoot and answer questions!

Our "Homework" tab on this site will be used to communicate all school work, not just homework! As we ease back into school using distance learning, most assignments will be in class work. Once we get the hang of things, we will be slowly introducing homework!

Materials for today:

1. Bag of Skittles (from your pick-up day supply bag)

2. Lines piece of paper

3. Pencil
