Dear Parents,
Welcome to week 1 of online learning! It is amazing that despite these difficult times we are still able to do so much! It is my pleasure to present you with a series of tasks that will meaningfully engage your child in tasks that will further their learning!
Every week, you will receive an email outlining the expected tasks for the week. Please note we understand these are difficult times, and we do not wish to make things any more difficult for you - students are only expected to do as much as they can and will NOT be penalized for missed assignments for any reason.
The weekly task list is also available to students in their Google Classroom under the Classwork tab with a video message.
Following the task list is a list of optional activities for those students who might have some extra time; and following that is a checklist students can use to keep track of their completed and submitted work.
Please feel free to contact me for any issues, concerns, or questions by phone or email!
Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Hussain
