"How does the parent know what to do to help their child learn?"
"Each teacher does their class differently"
"We need information streamlined so we are not going all over the place searching for information"

These requests/comments from parents are legit and we are here to help.

The move to Remote Learning is hard for this level of students. Many students have limited experience and ability to follow an extended process and manage their learning. This sudden move to online instruction had shown many successes and some that need some work.

In an effort to help parents, and students we are going to move to a common format in our lower grades to help standardize how parents see and use Canvas.

All Students for each grade level (1st - 4th) will be enrolled in a single Canvas course for their grade level called "-- Remote Learning 1st-19-20, Remote Learning 2nd-19-20, etc " If you do not see the course card in your dashboard, please follow these instructions on customizing your course cards.
Parents will go to the Module Section by selecting the Remote Learning button on the Homeroom Page.
The Module section is in a list format showing days i.e. Wednesday 3/18 Green Day
Under each day is a list for areas that needs to be done for that day.
Example:
- Morning Announcement
- Math
- Language Arts
- Science
- Gym
- Specials
----- French
----- Music
If a class is not running that day b/c it does not run on that color day , it will be not be listed.
Here is an example of the Module:

Note: A "Color Day" may not match the same format of color days prior to remote learning.
Within a subject, there may be instructions and links for activities or links to a specific teacher for their specific work. i.e. If you normally go to teacher Ms P. for your Math, you would click her name. If a parent or student clicks a link to a teacher other than where they are supposed to go, the system will deny them access to that area. If you are denied access to an area you believe you should have access to, please reach out to your Homeroom teacher. When completed, just move to the next item on the list for that day in the Module section of your child's Homeroom class
