Hello 4C families!
Another week of remote learning is done and I'm hoping that you are all getting the hang of it and feeling more comfortable with google classroom.
There are a few things that I wanted to mention to you about google classroom.
Google Classroom may not work correctly if you are using a computer that is signed in to multiple google accounts. You may see a google form not load correctly because google is getting "confused" with multiple accounts. It is best to log out of all accounts and only be logged on to your student google classroom account.
Please make sure to look for the "mark as done" button when completing an assignment through google forms. This is an important step. You will find the "mark as done" button when you have clicked on "view assignment" Above the "mark as done" box there is also a place for you to click "attach" Please note that you must submit an attachment for all spalding assignments. This is a Great Hearts requirement. We have done our best to reduce the need to upload in other subjects. Other than spalding, all other assignments can be completed online through google forms and there is no need to upload.
As teachers in google classroom we have no ability to move student work or mark something as done if there is nothing attached or nothing submitted in google forms. The only option we have is to select "return to the student" and it will then come up as missing or not done by the student.
I know that uploading documents is time consuming and not an enjoyable task. I appreciate your efforts to submit assignments to the proper location so that they can be graded and given proper feedback and credit. Mrs. Chilson and I will do our best to try and remember if we have been told that an assignment is in an alternate location but we cannot always guarantee that that will be the case and you will run the risk of not getting credit for the assignment.
Thank you again for all of your support. Mrs. Chilson and I truly miss seeing our class everyday. We are trying to comment and give careful attention to all of the work that is being submitted and hope they are feeling that we are appreciating their efforts.

I have seen some discrepancy in the XtraMath reporting. Several students are showing up as not logging on when they are. Please use the XtraMath parent flyer that was sent with your student. If you need a parent flyer please let me know and I will email one to you. If you use a different login or a different account it will not be linked to the Arete account.
Lessons this week:
Math- Students will learn how to read and use a coordinate grid. In addition, they will learn about changes in quantities. Students should complete XtraMath each day at https://xtramath.org/.
History- Students will complete the unit on the U.S. Constitution. Students will then begin their study of America’s early presidents. Students will learn about George Washington this week. Note: Tuesday’s history lesson is fairly long. Students should count any history reading toward their independent reading time. There is an optional activity on Friday. Students may fill in the missing words to the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution.
Grammar- Students will review prior content this week on sentence diagramming and classification.
Literature- Students will read independently or read along with audio of the assigned chapter of that day (https://librivox.org/the-wonderful-wizard-of-oz-solo-version-2-by-l-frank-baum/). On Wednesday & Friday students will write a detailed summary of the chapter from the previous day (or days) noting important characters and events. Students should write a 5-7 sentence summary.
Science - there is no science this week.
If you have any questions please reach out.
