Assistant Principal Pointers
You made it through the first week of distance learning, and we are so proud of you! Your patience, participation, and hard work have not gone unnoticed. Thank you for bringing your smiles to class each day! While we are all still learning to navigate technology and work out the kinks, we need to celebrate making new friends and new memories. I have a few pointers that might help make this new way of learning even better! :) Mrs. Clemenson
Make sure you are working in a place that is comfortable and has little distractions. You might need to try out a couple of different chairs or positions to find what works best for you. Turn off the tv and other devices.
Please use your first and last name on Zoom so the teachers know who to let in the class from the Waiting Room. This is for safety reasons.
If you need help, make sure to message your teacher on chat or send an email. This includes if you need a break. It is ok if you need help or if you are unsure what to do. We are in this together, and we will work it out together!
Parents, please make sure to email your child’s teacher if you have questions or concerns. Students can also put questions in the chat. We want to preserve the live teaching time for lessons.
Get up and get the wiggles out during breaks, and try to get outside during your lunch hour. The fresh air is good for you!
Have a regular bedtime that allows for plenty of sleep. It’s hard to get back into the swing of things if you aren’t rested!
Remember that with time, you will get into a routine with distance learning. It is just like when we are at school. We have to build up our stamina and practice, practice, practice!
