8 Purple students and families,
First of all, we miss you. We hope that you are doing well and staying healthy.
This morning, you and your family should have received an email from our Superintendent, Dr. Baeta. Beginning Monday, you will have assigned work to complete from each teacher. It is important that you are checking your Google Classroom pages every day. Some of the work will be review of old skills, some of the work may be new. We want you to try your very best. Please keep in mind that you are responsible to complete all work to the best of your ability.
To help you if you have questions, each of your teachers will have virtual “office hours”. These are times during the school day that you can email your teacher and expect a quick response or maybe even virtually chat with your teacher to get some help. Both 8P and 8W will be receiving the same assignments. This means that you can seek help or clarification from twice as many teachers! If you are used to getting some help from Mrs. McGarry or Mrs. Darling - we are still here for you! Check our Google Classroom pages for further assistance during this time.
Our teaching schedule is as follows:
Monday: Math and Science
Tuesday: English and Social Studies
Wednesday: Math and World Language or Reading
Thursday: English and Social Studies
Friday: Science and World Language or Reading
Specials every day.
As you can see, you will be getting two assignments per week for each subject. However, you will receive a task from your specialist teachers daily.
We are excited to get back to teaching, even though it looks so different from what we are used to! We have all been working really hard to put together things for you. In addition, we will continue to post fun activities and challenges to the “8P Just for Fun Google Classroom.” If you have not joined this classroom yet, please do using this code: 7egq7r4
Please reach out to me or any of your teachers if you have questions at any time. I know it may be hard to get back into “learning mode”, but it is important that you complete all assignments that are provided to you.
I am attaching Dr. Baeta’s Remote Learning Plan to this letter. We miss you a lot and are looking forward to connecting with you.
Take care,
Mrs. McGarry and 8P Teachers
