At Home Learning August 31-September 9

Ladies and Gentlemen-
I’m sorry that this school year has been such a crazy thing.  Hopefully this 2 week break will slow the spread of the virus and we can get back to a more normal schedule moving forward.  As we move into this “At Home” learning phase, here are some things you need to know.
1) Treat your home learning seriously.  You will be held accountable for your participation in zoom meetings, as well as your Edgenuity progress and grades accumulated along the way.
2) We will have multiple Zoom meetings weekly, so be checking your email for those invitations.
3) Contact my email with any questions you may have regarding the subject matter, Edgenuity access, or Zoom meetings.
4) Make sure to continue to practice distancing from each other so we can get past this virus.  If you have any desire to participate in extra curricular events this year (band, athletics, UIL, prom, graduation, etc.) you must take this unique situation seriously.
Your Edgenuity course for my US History class is titled Cloud- TX-US History Studies Since 1877
For my World History class Cloud TX-World History Studies
**Make sure you select that exact title.  You should all have that added to your Edgenuity account.  EMAIL ME IF YOU DO NOT**
