Sports & Event Marketing II Honors - Thursday 9/8
Parents,
I have your student in Sports & Event Marketing II Honors this fall. Here are a few details as we start the semester.
We will be using Canvas throughout the semester. Students should be logging in daily to find notes, assignments, links, etc.
We will also be using Virtual Business - Sports & Entertainment. Here is a link for anyone interested: https://knowledgematters.com/highschool/sports
I've had most students before so they are pretty good with expectations and understanding how class works. About 50% is individual work and 50% partner/group work.
I'll update some grades tomorrow and will continue next week. Students completed a group project this week and gave presentations. Those will also go in next week.
If you have any questions or concerns during the semester, email is the easiest way to reach me. I also have a Remind setup and we are using Talking Points. The remind code is @semwhs
Accounting I Honors - Thursday, 9/8
Parents,
I have your student in Accounting I Honors this fall. I wanted give you a few details as we start the semester.
We will be using Canvas & our Accounting website - all students have their accounts setup and should check each daily.
There are videos and notes for each chapter on Canvas. This can be helpful if students are absent or are completing work from home
Students should rarely have homework, they are given plenty of class time to complete work.
I have put in our first two grades - our Chapter 1 Problems and Chapter 1 Quiz. Any missing work from Chapter 1 is open until Sunday night so students have extra time to complete problems. If they still need additional time they can let me know on Monday.
We started Chapter 2 today, and will continue over the next few days.
