DISTANCE LEARNING COORDINATOR ELA & MATH K-8
FIFTH GRADE
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
This year I will work remotely with all distance learners (K-8) to provide both math and ELA instruction. Should Governor Cuomo close all schools, I will resume my role as the fifth grade teacher. All remote learners that had been working with me will resume instruction with their classroom teacher.
To my fifth grade parents, please know that I will be closely collaborating with the substitute to ensure a smooth transition and consistency throughout the school year.
The fifth grade supply list is below and should be purchased by students that will be attending in person. My distance learner supply list is at the bottom of this page.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me.
Enjoy the remaining weeks of summer and stay healthy!
