\Welcome Parents and Students to a wonderful new year! This year promises to be an exciting one because of our Mobile Device Initiative, which means that your child will be using a laptop in class everyday. Most of their work will be completed and submitted in Schoology. Although it is my goal to be as paperless as possible this year, they will still need to bring their Three-Ring Binder, paper/pencil, and their agenda to class everyday.
I will post homework assignments, any information, directions, and notes here on my website. However, we will be adding websites that we use and information may be posted elsewhere.
I will also be using Remind to alert you to various changes and updates to the course. Please see the picture below to sign up for updates.
Explore this site. I left most of the information from previous years so you can see what is in store. It will be familiar by the end of the course. Look at the syllabus. This is what we will study. Explore the links. Familiarize yourself with the tabs like CLASS RULES AND PROCEDURES .
Read the Materials. Optional is truly optional. Brands are unimportant. Walmart, Amazon, Target, etc. Please get them as soon as possible. The students will not be able to participate until they get the materials.
So, for homework assignment number one, here we go:
1. There will be a materials check Thursday, 8/23 (ODD) and Friday 8/24 (EVEN)
2. Sign up for Remind http://rmd.me/b?rid=73283015
- On your phone, you can text @dak8civics to the number 81010
- You’ll receive a welcome text from Remind.
- If anyone has trouble with 81010, they can try texting @dak8civics to (508) 283-3805.
If you have any questions, please contact me through the website or email me directly at [email protected].
I look forward to a wonderful and challenging year!
