The first PR deadline for the third marking period is Feb 17th and the second is due March 23rd.
Reading Focus: The Giver, by Lois Lowry. Your child has been assigned a novel and is required to bring it to class daily. Both in and out of class reading will be expected. Students should NOT read ahead of the assigned chapters each day. Dear Students,
We are looking forward to working with Today's Meet and offering you all an extended classroom online. In order to do this successfully, it really depends on you. In a virtual classroom, please remember to be responsible and respectful. Today's Meet does not have the same rules as texting or Facebooking. Using emojis, slang, acronyms (LOL, BTW, BRB) is not correct language for this forum. Instead, it is designed to utilize your classroom skills online as an extension of our classroom. As such, you need to reach those same standards. Before you post...make sure you THINK! You have three jobs: 1. follow the link to your correct classroom 2. write your first name and first initial of your last name as your "nickname" (if any students have the same first name AND the same first initial of your last name, make sure you use your FULL last name) - for example: Jenny A., Noah W., etc. 3. Respond to the prompt appropriately. We believe you are mature enough to handle this opportunity! Sincerely, Mrs. Belleau & Ms. Snow The first PR deadline for the third marking period is Feb 17th and the second is due March 23rd.
