Communications
There are four formats for parents to keep track of what the class is learning. The first format is a group email blast to parents. I send weekly announcements briefly summarizing what was just completed and the learning goals for the upcoming week.
The second feature is Google Classroom's Guardian feature. By enrolling as a Guardian, parents can opt to receive daily or weekly email summaries of the class including: your child's missing work—work not turned in when the summary was sent, upcoming work—work that’s due today and tomorrow (for daily emails) or that’s due in the upcoming week (for weekly emails); class activity—announcements, assignments, and questions recently posted by the teacher.
The third way is through the Remind app. I use this to communicate with students and parents and give reminders and clarifications about assignments. Parents can send me a message, similar to an email and I'll promptly respond during normal office hours.
Lastly, I'll be posting updates on this site. I'll post what I send in the weekly emails, as well as posting a summary of what students are doing in class. These will be found on the pages at the top of this site.
