WELCOME TO 4th-5th GRADE!!!

Dear Parents and Students,

• Student responsibilities in completing the assignments include:
• Identifying a comfortable and quiet space to study/learn
• Dedicating appropriate time to learning, as guided by your teachers
• Routinely checking appropriate Google Classrooms and emails for information on courses, assignments, and resources, on a daily basis
• Attending and participating in any check-in times offered by your teachers
• Engaging in the virtual platforms with academic honesty, integrity, and according to the district's Acceptance Use Policy
• Submitting all assignments in accordance with provided timelines and/or due dates

Support your child in their learning process by:

• Monitoring OPS updates sent via phone blasts, Class Dojo, Remind, Google Classroom, district website, etc.
• Checking in with your child daily about the At Home/Virtual Learning tasks, activities, and assessments that they are working on
• Checking in, daily, your child's Google Classroom "Grades" to ensure that assignments are being completed. If you see  "missing" it indicates that your child did not complete the assignment. This "missing" grade/score will be reflective of the student's overall grade and attendance
• Encouraging adherence and attendance in the At-Home/Virtual Learning check-in times offered by each of your children’s teachers
• Designating a place and time where your child will work independently on his/her assigned tasks
• Asking your child to provide a brief summary of the learning he/she is engaging in for each class to ensure their understanding of the content
• Asking your child about their deadlines and supporting them, as needed, in submitting assignments in accordance with the established deadlines
• Helping your child manage logs to document progress on assignments and lessons
• Reminding your child to contact/email his/her teachers if they have any questions
