Grading Metrics
Duration
After speaking to a few of you, a few ideas were shared with me. If you are struggling to meet these time requirements you might consider:
-Using a timer and giving a break in between each subject.
-Creating a specific "school" space or learning center that students may use away from distractions.
-Creating a structured schedule each day so students know when they start, stop, eat lunch, have breaks, etc. Like in a traditional school, you may want to post this on the wall so students can watch the time and their progress.
Academic Progress
We have had a few parents raise concerns about the difficulty of content. Please note that the Pathblazer Math and Reading is tailored to your students academic level and needs based off the diagnostic test. They will work in their learning path for those topics. In the Odyssey folder all standards should be grade level. This may mean that work is harder for them to master at first, but we are required by law to give each student grade level work. If they are struggling, please let me know and I may be able to provide resources to you.
Attendance Matters
Important Weekly Communication Information
How is your student doing with daily login and their schoolwork schedule? How can I better support you?
Please note that I will be contacting your students via email separately, as I have to make weekly communication with them too. I would like to remind you that this two-way communication is one of the requirements to remain in this program. As I contact you, I am logging our communication. Please help me in this process!
