Special Area Update
Beginning Wednesday, December 16
Revised Wednesday Remote Learning Schedule
The information below outlines a revised model for Remote Wednesdays to provide students with an opportunity to meet virtually with their cycle special area teacher.
- The classroom teacher will continue to conduct a virtual Morning Meeting on Wednesdays.
- Your child's special area cycle teacher will now offer a live session. This lesson will take the place of the recorded or asynchronous session for the week. The time and link for this lesson will be shared prior to and/or on Wednesday, December 16. You may check the special area teacher's Schoology page or your child's homeroom teacher daily plan.
- After the live lesson, your child will continue to complete the asynchronous work for the other four special area classes.
What is the schedule for my child's cycle special area class?
Kindergarteners will engage in a live session for approximately 15 minutes.
Students in grades 1-5 will engage in a live session for approximately 20 minutes.
Please keep in mind, that the special area teachers will do their best to engage students with their content without their typical in-school resources. The special area teacher may begin the lesson and allow students time to work and practice independently after the session is over.
Why are we adding live sessions for special areas?
What will be unique about Wednesday, December 23?
