March 18th

Good morning everyone!  I hope everyone had a nice St Patrick's Day!  I encourage all of you to do the Religion assignment today together as a family.  We are praying the rosary today.  It is our most powerful tool we have.  I've included links under Wednesday if you need help.  

Today, I will be taking attendance through IXL.  No need to send an email.  The first two days were an adjustment.  I was giving everyone a chance to sort through wifi issues, computer issues, whatever it may be.  Today, students need to be logged in and working on IXL. Must work at least 40 mins everyday!  I still see some students have not logged in at all.  Please let me know if there is a particular reason why your child has not logged in.  They will also eventually be using the Language Arts also on IXL, so they need to access their account today if they have not logged in!!
***For Math IXL, make sure they are working on the skills I have listed for each day BEFORE they start working on other skills.  I want them to master the skills I have listed.  Some students are skipping around, which is ok, it's great practice, but they have to work on the skills I have listed first.    

I am setting up Google classroom today.  Your child will be getting an invite to join each class.  Please make sure they are checking their email and clicking Join when the invites come through for each class.  Their emails are [email protected]; password: ABCD1234. They wrote this in their planners last Fri. If they are having any issues logging in, please let me know.  

All students need to go into Mr. Dimsey's blog and click on the tutorials.  He has a lot of helpful YouTube videos on how to access Google Classroom, submit an assignment, etc.  I will give an update exactly when the invites for each class have gone out.  Please keep checking the blog throughout the day, or at least at the beginning and end of the day, as I'm trying to give the most up to date information as I am receiving it.  Thank you again for your patience. We are all in this together, so please send me any questions/concerns you have.  Take care!! I'm thinking of all of you and will continue to keep everyone in my prayers.  I miss you all!!!
