Being a first time student at FLVS can be overwhelming. But we are here to support you in this new journey! Are you ready to get started in your English 1 class?
Let's review the basics of getting started!
The LESSONS are like your textbook for the course. This is where you will go to read through each lesson and learn what to complete for your assignment. You will always read the lessons FIRST.
It is best to work through the course, in order. Many of the assignments build on each other throughout the class.
Segment One Students: Start in Lesson 1.00
Segment Two Students: Start in Lesson 4.00
Use the forward and back buttons to navigate through each page of the lesson.
As you read through each lesson, it is important to read each slide carefully, while completing all of the interactives and self checks.
Try using our GUIDED NOTES (need to link) for each lesson to help take notes as you read!
Then, at the end of each lesson, you will find your assignment and the instructions for submission. Assessments come in the form of quizzes and written assignments.
Quizzes: Most quizzes have numerous short response questions that will need to be answered in complete sentences.
Written Assignments: Written assignments should be submitted in the form of a file (pdf, rtf, word, etc) and all assignments must be typed.
Once you read the lesson and review the assessment directions, you will then go to your ASSESSMENTS to submit the assignment or take the quiz for the lesson.
Think of this as your "to-do" list! Once you submit an assignment, it will disappear off of this list.
TIP: It is extremely important that you work in the order of the class! Please do not skip around.
Call your teacher for the welcome call! Before you are activated in the course, a welcome call must be completed! So reach out to your teacher to set up this call!
There are 6 total modules in the course.
Segment 1 consists of module 1, module 2, and module 3.
Segment 2 consists of module 4, module 5, and module 6.
If you are taking the course for Honors credit, you will complete the regular modules + the Honors assignment(s) at the end of each module.
Students are required to submit work each week in the course - a minimum of 2-3 assignments are encouraged weekly.
