I hope
this Memorial Day weekend finds you and your loved ones healthy and safe.
Student
belongings will be available for you to pick up at the school this Wednesday
May 27 from 12:30 pm to 3:00 pm. All of your child’s belongings and work
folders, along with a cover letter from me explaining what’s in there, will be
bundled up in a clear plastic bag. I will be there to say “hello” that day, but
we will have to maintain social distance. If you can’t make it at that time, I
will follow up with you and we can figure out another way to deliver the bag to
you. If your student has a school Chromebook, you can hang on to it through the
summer and return it at the start of next school year. I attached the
district’s Belongings Cleanup & Chromebook Drop Off Plan to this message,
in case you want more details about the process.
This is
Week #11 of remote learning. The overview of this week’s new work is in the
“Remote Learning Week #11 Parent-Caregiver Guide,” available as a PDF file here. Also, this message and all the previous weekly
Remote Learning Parent-Caregiver Guides are always available on my class blog
at bssroom302.blogspot.com.
NEW THIS WEEK
* Poetry Writing
Students
can try their hands at writing tanka poems, a form of poetry from Japan, similar
to haiku. The lesson, in our Google Classroom presented as a video, was created
by Jackson Street School teacher Kathie Bredin.
* Class Zoom Meeting
We will
do another Zoom meeting this week on Tuesday May 26 at 10:00 am. I will post
the new meeting link in our Google Classroom “Specials, Talk with Mr. Z and
Other Cool Stuff” where the kids can access it on their own.
OTHER NOTES
* I
will be working and available tomorrow May 25 in case you need to get in touch
with me. I will be unavailable this Thursday May 28.
