Week of 4/20/20 Please check for assignments in Microsoft Teams for your class period
BrianPop in your E-Book from the student portal and Bill Nye "Genes" w/Quiz in Teams "Assignments" |

4/13/20 - 4/15/20 Review your notes from class. I have included the document for review. Just study, nothing to turn in. I will post the quiz later this week. Revisa tus apuntes de la clase. He incluido el documento para su revisión. Solo estudie, no hay nada que entregar. Publicaré el cuestionario más adelante esta semana.
On Monday 4/13/20 I will be issuing "0"s (Zeros) for missing assignments 2 weeks late. I will do this every time an assignment is 2 weeks late through the end of Distance Learning. You may still complete the assignments for credit, but the "Z"s will be a reminder that you have missing assignments
4/10/20 Friday was originally a Teacher Planning/Workday, so I will not be available for office hours on 4/10/20. You can still submit work, but I won't be checking it until Monday. I wanted you all to be aware so you aren't frustrated if I don't respond to you or your parents.
We have a new schedule for Video conferencing, starting next week. I want to host a Zoom meeting next week where we play a Kahoot to review for the quiz next week. I will be assigning the quiz as a "Form" you answer online from "Assignments" and I receive the results. Our Kahoot will be "VERY, VERY similar" to the quiz. I hope to answer any questions and play the Kahoot. Quick, like 30 mins??? I hope. I will give you the date and time later this week, most likely the meeting will be Monday or Tuesday next week. I am posting the schedule Mrs. Valdes came up with by period and department. I really miss you all and hope we "see each other" next week via Zoom. More info on this will be forth coming
Attendance will be taken from students logging into their portals. If students do not log into their portal during the "school day", MDCPS will mark students absent - this starts 4/6/20....this Monday!!
