A few key reminders:
- I will be on Google Handouts / Chat every day from Noon to 2 (12:00-14:00) https://meet.google.com/jau-rhsb-wca for specific questions and class help. IN ADDITION if you email me, I’ll respond very promptly, and we can also set up another time that works better for you.
- ALL ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE THE FOLLOWING WEEK ON MONDAY (unless noted otherwise) Grades will be updated on Aspire on Thursdays like always, with some more regular updates as well).
- GRADES will be on Aspire (and updated regularly). It will also tell you if you have any MISSING ASSIGNMENTS from the previous weeks.
- I will be making all assignments a Google Form / QUIZ that can be filled out (it will automatically email it to me, and also to yourself if you choose) AND a downloadable form as well (you can take a picture, upload, email, or even drop off at the school during office hours). I will be IN school at least weekly on Thursday when I update grades, and I’ll check my mailbox.
