PLANNING IS GUESSING
"Before you take your homeschooling plans for the upcoming year too seriously, remember that you’re only guessing. It’s important guessing- essential, even.
But still. Planning is (at its best) just guessing.
Think about it:
When we are planning for our year ahead, we’re making all kinds of guesses. We’re guessing about how…
- quickly our child will master each math concept and will be ready to move on to the next one
- much time our child will need to write that paragraph
- long that conversation about slavery will take with our child who is reeling from his first encounter with history’s ugly truth
- many times everyone will get sick
- much sleep we will get on any given night
- many times the dishwasher will overflow or the dryer will break
- many times the toddler twins will shove toys down the toilet (or is that just me?)
We’re making guesses about how much schoolwork we can get done in a day, and how many books or lessons we’ll be able to finish. But none of us actually know what tomorrow holds.
When we remember that planning is guessing, we keep our plans in their place. We remember that curriculum and lesson plans are only meant to be tools, wielded by us but not to rule over us."

Does your student need math intervention?
Step 1: Make sure they are using an evidence based curriculum (Math U See, Right Start Math, Touch Math, Teaching Textbooks, or CLICK HERE for many more adopted curriculums). Work in this curriculum daily for one hour minimum.
Step 2: Use your instructional planning amounts for a twice weekly tutor.
Step 3: What else can I suggest? Try the free programs included in the OSP. Or add OSP a la carte programs like My Math Academy, Shmoop, or Prodigy.
Step 4: If you’ve tried this for 6-10 weeks and your student is still struggling, let’s schedule a Student Study Team appointment with our school success coordinator and see what other options are available.
ELAC/DELAC Meeting
Thank you for those of you who joined the ELAC/DELAC Meeting.
Here is a slideshow of topics covered at the meeting.
19/20 ELPAC Scores- are available under testing on your Parent Portal! If your student was unable to complete the test due to COVID school closure, there may be an opportunity to complete the ELPAC this fall.
Reclassification--If your child has an overall score of 4 on the ELPAC and no more than one 2 in the four domains of reading, writing, listening, and speaking he/she could qualify to be reclassified from EL to Reclassified Fluent English Proficient (RFEP). If your child qualifies, your HST will contact you with more details within the next 2 weeks.
ELD Instruction- If your child is classified as EL, they are required to participate in 30 minutes of ELD (English Language Development) instruction everyday. Brainpop EL is available for Free to all of our EL students. Contact your HST for more information on how to enroll your child.
Parent Website
- Contact your HST and ask them to change your email address that is listed in Pathways.
- Your HST will contact our SAA to request that the parent's email address be changed in Pathways.
- Once the parent email address has been updated in Pathways, then the email address will be updated in Beehively. Please note this will take 2-3 weeks to update.
Week 9/7 - 9/11: The following subscription will begin processing this week:
Accelerated Reader
Please note that processing may take 2-3 business days before an email notification is sent. All student accounts will be set up with the student’s school email address. Student school email address information was previously sent to the primary parent by the Tech Department. If you need assistance accessing your student’s school email account, please contact the Tech Department:
techhelp@cabrillopointacademy.org
BrainPOP/BrainPOP Jr. UPDATE: Unfortunately, BrainPOP is currently experiencing processing difficulties and will not be ready this week.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience the BrainPOP subscription delay has caused our students and families. We are working diligently with BrainPOP to devise solutions which will make the subscriptions available as quickly as possible.
The new projected date for BrainPOP is Monday, September 14th. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
