REMOTE LEARNING PLAN:
I know this is gonna be a lot for you... figuring out how to do all this new stuff for your classes online, not having your regular routine, seeing your classmates, sports and other activities, etc.. We'll be figuring it out together! You know that structure and organization are things that I do well.. you'll still be getting weekly outlines posted here to our website along with the assignments you're familiar with. Its going to be really important for you to keep up with and keep going with your learning. It'll be hard to resist procrastinating while at home, but do yourself a huge favor and set yourself a daily schedule and stick to it. I'll miss you all and our regular time in class together.. I'll do my best to create a digital learning experience that is engaging and worthwhile. I'll be available via email between 10am and 2pm Monday-Friday.
Online Tools/Programs You'll Need:
Study Island.. If you don't have or don't remember how to access your Study Island account, I have all of your login information. Email me for it and I'll send it to you. I'll be using Study Island to give you review activities after you've completed the weekly outline assignments and for Quizzes and Tests... so you definitely need it.
Zoom.. Zoom is a group meeting program (we just used it today for our first 'remote' Faculty meeting). A lot of your teachers, including me, will probably be using it to give you whatever live instruction we can during this time... plus, it'll be a good way of keeping up with you guys!
Remind.. I technically have always had a Remind, just haven't made use of it. That'll change now. If you haven't joined my Remind: https://www.remind.com/join/f9dhg2k
Flipgrid.. Flipgrid is dynamic video-based project platform where assignment topics are posted by me and you respond with uploaded video responses. More on this later.
Emailing Assignments Instructions:
When its time to turn assignments in, your period will be given a due day to email the assignments to my [email protected] account. When you email, you will send ONE document that contains ALL the completed assignments.. each assignment gets its own page and will be TITLED, DATED, and bear your NAME. The document itself that you are emailing will be titled with your first initial followed by your last name, then your class period. Ex: JSutton P2 ..If you use Google Docs, you can email me the link invite to the doc (probably the easiest.. just make sure that email is titled with the chapter ex: "Ch 26 Assignments"
Intro to Law Studies:
Our study of our nation's Civil Law system will continue with a series of activities and projects. Each of these will be posted in the "Civil Law" dropdown box of the Comprehensive Law Studies page. This week's activity is posted for you there now. It will be due to my email [email protected] by the end of the day Friday. When you email the assignment, title the document your last name and "Law 1" ex: Sutton Law 1.
To be able to better communicate with you, I've created a Remind for this class.. join here: https://www.remind.com/join/bh66ha I'll keep you notified when about deadlines, instructions, and when I've posted new assignments, activities, video links, etc...
Horticulture:
I've created a Remind Group for our class.. to join: Send a text to 81010 and text this message: @gcb22c or go to: https://www.remind.com/join/gcb22c
Go to the Horticulture Page of this website.. you'll see a dropdown box titled "Planter Project". Click there to read about how we will continue with the practical application part of our class. I will also be adding other research activities, video links, articles, how-to tutorials etc.. as we go along. Everything you need to know will come to you through the Remind announcements and this website. Any questions/problems can be directed my way via email: [email protected]
