I am leaving this up so that families can see what happened in the era of remote learning during COVID.

The New Normal

Below is the district mandated message for parents that each teacher has on their teacher page. The difference here is that I must put both the K-2 and 3-5 message here. The message explains that I will be posting instruction and instruction activities. Even though this is stated, please be advised that any instruction or activities you find for art are not district mandated at this time. This means your child does not have to follow the instruction or work on the activities; it is by choice. 

My personal view for any activities you find here is for the interest, engagement and enjoyment of the students. Because the letters are divided between K-2 and 3-5, I will be creating google classrooms for 3-5 and K-2 will find theirs here on my teacher page. In general, I will post an art activity every couple weeks. In the immediate future, there will be other upcoming art ideas vetted through the district for home use.

Hello Parents and Guardians,

Since each student in the district has been placed on Home Instruction due to COVID-19, I will be posting the instruction and instructional activities here for each day that school is not physically in session. I will also be online and available by email at (jdemaria@mtps.org) from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Monday through Friday to answer any and all questions you may have.  Please reach out to me with any questions or concerns you have. Please send any building level questions to either our principal or vice principal(s).  We will all be here to support your children and our community during these difficult times.  

Sincerely,

Mr. D
