Hello Families,
Hopefully the changes we made in the settings of our google classrooms stopped the students from getting bombarded with emails for every assignment posted for this week. Mondays should be for looking through email and google classrooms and then seeing if there is any work that can get started. Go through each classroom and look at the assignments. Make a plan that works for your family. (Remember the daily 2 to 2 1/2 hours of work time rule!)
I love to do lists. I always show the kids my lists. I have two neighbors come over everyday and on Mondays we look through the assignments on google classroom and then make a list of the assignments for the week. Then we plan them out for the week. Every morning after breakfast and TV time, we make a to do list for that day. By the time the day is done, they have each spent about
2 1/2 hours on academics. It helps for us to have the same schedule everyday because I am working as well.
But that might not work for you and that's okay. Your days need to work for your family!!! If you need help with anything, please reach out to us.
We will be reaching out to you about becoming a "guardian" on your child's google classroom. It will allow you to receive summaries of the work that has been assigned and the work that has yet to be turned in or marked as done. You set your notification preferences for daily or weekly updates. You do not have to do this, but it is helpful. My neighbor receives daily updates, and she emails them to me, so I am able to use that to help us with our daily to do lists.
Have a great Monday. We are here if you need support! Reach out before the frustration takes over.
