Staying Healthy

  1. Avoid close contact. - Avoid close contact with people who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick too. Don't share your food or drink.
  2. Stay home when you are sick. - If possible, stay home from work, school, and errands when you are sick. This will help prevent spreading your illness to others.
  3. Cover your mouth and nose. - Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. You can also cough or sneeze into your elbow/shoulder. It may prevent those around you from getting sick. Flu and other serious respiratory illnesses, are spread by cough, sneezing, or unclean hands.
  4. Clean your hands. - Washing your hands often will help protect you from germs. You should wash for 20 seconds (sing the ABC's). If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.
  5. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. - Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose, or mouth.
  6. Practice other good health habits. - Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school, especially when someone is ill. Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat nutritious food.
  7. Wear a mask when you go outside.- The CDC now recommends if you do have to go outside to wear a mask. You can create your own. Here is a link to a no sew design. Remember it is better to stay at home, but the mask will provide some protection if you have to go out and help limit your ability to spread the virus if you are sick but do not have symptoms.

Please fill out this form on any day that you participate in learning at iMiddle!

Advisory

Content:

Miss your advisory meeting this week? Here is another option!

Get out a piece of paper and title it “Goals To Accomplish Before Summer”. Draw a line down the middle of the paper, creating two sides. On the left side write “Personal Goals” and on the right side write “Academic Goals”. List 3 goals on each side! Personal goals could be things like: Read 5 books or Run a mile 3 times a week. Academic goals could be things like: Earn a 3.5 GPA or Get an A in science. When you complete your list, hang it somewhere that you can see it everyday for a reminder! (bedroom wall, bathroom mirror, refrigerator, etc…)

Online Chat Room Etiquette

1. Find a quiet place without a glare on your screen. Please avoid sitting in front of an open window (you will look like you are in the witness protection program).

2. Keep your microphone on mute unless you want to talk.

3. Be respectful in your spoken words, chat, and video. Teachers have access to all chats.

4. Do not record or take any screenshots of during the meeting.

5. Please avoid eating while in the meeting.

6. Please be present- stay focused on the discussion at hand. Please stay focused on the conversation and our class- do not multitask and play games. You will have time at the end to show everyone your cute dogs or other cool things.

7. Use the chat function to ask to talk, ask questions, make appropriate comments. The teacher will call on you and ask you to unmute your audio. Try to remember to re-mute after so there is not too much background noise.

8. Please do not share the zoom/meeting links publicly.

These functions are at the bottom of your screen.

If you have a headset/ earphones/ earbuds, please use them. They help with blocking out background noise.
