Possible daily timetable

Making a schedule will help you and your family clarify their expectations of the day. Below is a possible timetable that you might like to use. This is just a suggestion, please feel free to modify this to suit the needs of you and your family. You might like to consider building in times for your child/ren to do some learning, some moving, time for them to work independently, and time for them to get attention from you. Consider everyone’s needs including yourself so that your daily schedule has time for you to work, exercise, and do your typical (or close to it) daily life.

How to access and leave a google meet.mov

Accessing an online Google Meet

It is important for us to maintain connection with our classes during distance learning. To facilitate this, we have set up daily a daily meeting time at 1:30pm-2:15pm to meet with our classes in an online space. During this time, we will read together, connect with each other and have the chance to answer questions. Please view this video to see how to access the meeting. It is important that children have their microphones muted unless asking a question. We also ask that students follow the protocol for leaving the meeting by staying in the meeting until the teacher personally waves them goodbye and then the teacher disconnects them from the chat.
