Quarter 2, Week 3, 11-23 to 11-27

Monday - Cohort A comes to school only today for our last face-to-face check-in before going fully remote next week. We can do this, we just need kids to do their school work every day, a little every day, and they will be just fine. I will be getting kids ready today for our upcoming work on the Ocean Guardian School Environmental Stewardship Project.  

Ms. Berg, Mr. Brennan, and I are going to develop a schedule for 6th graders and we will share that on Monday, Nov 30. We would like to each have a 30 minute Zoom or Google Meet session every day to keep students focused on working every day.

Tuesday - Cohort B comes to school only today.

Wednesday - Today everyone works online at home for half a day as this our early release schedule day before Thanksgiving. Our esports meeting is cancelled for today and I will let students know when we will be meeting next week.

Thursday and Friday - Thanksgiving Holiday! Have a happy Thanksgiving everyone!

This week I will reveal the response to the Disease Detectives once everyone is done and students will finish their Disease Report if they did not do it at home (Cohort B students need to finish Disease Detectives and Disease Report before Thursday). Then we will focus on the Environmental Stewardship quest. The assignments that students need to work on this week are: Water Quality Research (this assignment provides students with the organizing document where they will take notes on a water quality parameter) Project Survey The Parameters (this is where students see what parameter everyone is responsible for learning and taking notes on) Then students will study the parameter assigned to them (students will watch a video on EdPuzzle to get the information they need to take their notes). Wednesday - Today I will drop the next set of assignments. Thursday & Friday - Cohort A works on the same assignments above from home (including the ones added on Wednesday).

Cohort C Week's Science Work - This week I will reveal the response to the Disease Detectives once everyone is done and students will finish their Disease Report if they have not done so yet. (Here's the video message I recorded for students.) Then we will focus on the Environmental Stewardship quest. The assignments that students need to work on this week are: Water Quality Research (this assignment provides students with the organizing document where they will take notes on a water quality parameter) Project Survey The Parameters (this is where students see what parameter everyone is responsible for learning and taking notes on) Then students will study the parameter assigned to them (students will watch a video on EdPuzzle to get the information they need to take their notes).
