You are responsible for your own learning. Yup, I said that! You have responsibilities as students because that's part of growing up and becoming responsible individuals.

That means, that you are expected to come to class on time and be prepared to work. That means, that taking notes and asking questions is important for your success and understanding. You will need to pay attention in class and view the videos provided for extra help. The videos provided are a supplement to what we do in class. I am your teacher and I am there to guide and facilitate your understanding. You will also have access to notes and links in order to be able to complete the activities and assignments with ease.

I want to emphasize that understanding the material covered in class can only be achieved by being an ACTIVE LEARNER. For example, you may need extra help so you need to let me know so I can explain things differently. You may also need to view an instructional video more than once, pause it, rewind it and take notes as you watch. You need to figure out what environment works for you and what does not and adjust.

As your teacher, my role is to create engaging lessons, teach you new material and concepts, explain assignments, record lessons when applicable and provide guidance and support along the way. Oh, and I also have to grade!

You are not alone in this learning process; you can always send me an email through Google Classroom if you need further clarification or reach me during instructional support time. All teachers are required to have tutoring hours posted in their classrooms. Use it. Teaching and learning is a two way street; both of us have to work.

My ADVICE:
It is important for you to have a "homework routine"established. Once you have relaxed a bit and are ready to tackle the responsibilities of being a student, don't procrastinate, just do it!
STEP 1: Start with your shortest tasks first and then take a 10-15 minute break when done.
STEP 2: Start working on your harder assignments. Set yourself a timer and work for 30 minutes straight with no distractions.
STEP 3: Take a 10 minute break when the time is up and to do whatever you want.
STEP 4: Repeat steps 2 and 3 until done.
A good way of creating this habit is to have a designated area in the house used only for completing school work. It can be the living room, the kitchen table, your room, the porch, or any "quiet" place. The point is to be focused and ready to complete your homework.
During break time move away from this area so that your brain starts associating work with your homework area.
