Parent-Teacher Conferences Thursday, October 20

 
Greetings Parents of Chargers,
 
I hope this finds you well.
 
Parent-Teacher Conferences will take place Thursday, Oct 20 from 3:15-6:15 in Room 712 or via telephone if you prefer.
 
To request a conference, simply book a slot on the SignUp Genius link below. We will use 10-minute time slots. If additional time is needed, we will need to schedule a meeting on another date. 
 
Parents can "walk-in" but reserved meeting times will receive priority. As the time slots are back-to-back, we will remain on schedule so that all parents involved can be adequately served.
 
The SignUp Genius link is below and please include your child’s name, your name, and the type of conference (in-person or telephone):

It has also been sent out via Skyward message.
 
I look forward to seeing you.
 
Sincerely,
Christina Oats

Asynchronous Assignments & Schoology

Asynchronous Assignments by Week:
Please see the red tab to the right below my picture to access each week's assignment calendar. This will serve to keep students and parents informed on what we are studying as well as provide an agenda of expected assignments to submit for that week. The asynchronous assignments calendar will be updated weekly so please check my webpage as such.
  • Unless otherwise noted (i.e. use your journal), submit all Amplify work electronically through the online textbook (hand in).
  • Should Amplify be down or you are unable to login, use the weekly calendar and paper textbook & journal to complete assignments. Send a screenshot of your work to my email: [email protected].
Schoology:
Students will access materials outside of Amplify via Schoology (go to OMS website, then Clever, then the black Schoology App). If you have not hearted/favorited it, then you will need to scroll to the bottom to find it in Clever.
  • Resources included are skills time work for each day, the week's PowerPoint of our lessons of study, CFAs, and supplemental texts/materials/videos/NearPods/notes/etc. that we are using that week.
  • Skills time work is due by Friday of each week by 3:00 p.m. Submit via email to: [email protected].
