With every week we are learning and growing as we transition to this new mode of learning. When we gather in Google Meet for Grade 5 Math, I will email/post the code approximately 5 minutes before our start time. After coordinating with classes and teachers we will try the following schedule in hopes that it works for the time being.
Grade 5 Math Meet:
Wednesdays at 11 am
Some students have mentioned that it is overwhelming to check their GMail daily and deal with the inbox. A suggestion I have to help manage this is to delete notifications after you have read them and answered the emails that need a response. So, delete what you do not need to keep your inbox manageable.
Grade 5 Math-Current Work:
- Review of Multiplication Strategies
- Develop Division Strategies
- Practice and use estimation strategies for each operation
There are time throughout the day that I have dedicated to replying to emails. I look most mornings between 8:30-9:00 am. I also spend several other times throughout the day checking assignments and emails around scheduled meetings. Monday-Thursday I do a final check before 3:10. Friday, my final check is before 12:30. If you message me on a weekend I will respond on the first workday back.
Many students have emailed me with questions about their work and I do my best to answer and support them as promptly as possible.
I hope this information helps you as we continue this transition in our learning.
