Digital Learning Day
See them here:
As we head into the winter season, the likelihood of inclement weather increases. Now is the time to plan your Digital Learning Day activities and prepare your students so you will be ready if a Digital Learning Day is declared.
If a Digital Learning Day is declared,
- Teachers will need to have their Digital Learning Day modules published by 9:00am on the day of inclement weather. Grade level expectations are listed below.
- Students will complete
- K-2: One reading assignment and one math assignment
- 3-5: One 20-30 minute assignment in each of the following: Math, ELA, and Special (see Specials schedule in link below)
- 6-8: One 20-30 minute assignment in each of their classes
- 9-12: One 30-45 minute assignment in each of their classes
- Teachers will hold office hours based on the following schedule
- Elementary: 9:00am-10:00am and 1:00pm-2:00pm
- Middle/High 10:00am-11:00am and 2:00pm-3:00pm
- Students must complete all assignments within one week of returning to school from an inclement weather event.
To make sure you are ready:
- Use Canvas regularly so students and parents are used to logging in, navigating inside courses, and submitting assignments.
- Prepare modules in advance.
- If you are an elementary teacher, some modules should already be created for you and in your Canvas courses. If you do not see these, please contact Jenna Barton jbarton@paulding.k12.ga.us. If you do see these, preview them and make any necessary edits for your students.
