CTT- Wacky Wednesday
Starting next week, we will begin our bi-weekly Collaborative Planning time for the teachers. Students will have a SECOND specials time in the afternoon from 2:00-2:55pm (this is different from last year). During this time, both virtual and face-to-face students will have new Specials activities that they will complete and then the teachers will adjust their content course load as needed throughout the day.
Face to Face Learners: With the charged iPad, we would like your learner to bring their charging cord to and from school each day just in case it is needed, their mask, water bottle, snack, lunch (if not buying) and supplies (if not already with us on campus). Your learner is more than welcome to bring their personal hand sanitizer from home if they would prefer.
Virtual Learners:
CDE- NO 9am Zoom on Monday due to our rescheduled campus fire drill. The student's zoom will first begin after specials at 10:05am.
TCE Curbside will be on Wednesday's from 11:00-12:30pm in the Front Loop. Library books will be quarantined for 7 days before they are checked in and removed from the account.
Library Curbside will begin next Wednesday, 9/16 for our Virtual Learners (VLs). VLs are encouraged to put books on hold in Destiny (limit 2). Once books are pulled and checked out, I will send an email to the VL and parent(s) notifying them that their holds are ready for pick up. It is important to note that Destiny may say that the books are ready, however that does not mean that I have pulled the books from the shelf and checked them out. Please wait until you have received a confirmation email from me with the next curbside date. If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Mancuso at kmancuso@coppellisd.com
Cub Scout Information
Coppell ISD continues to update their Return to School site. We recommend checking this site periodically for updates as well.
Technology Reminders
- All Zoom links and times will be stored in the calendar feature of Schoology (see image below).
- Checking Submissions, Scores, & Teacher Feedback: Want to know if your child has submitted all of their assignments for this week? Watch this video (we are using the same method that fifth grade teacher, Miss Natherson is explaining) to learn about how to check submissions, scores/grades, and read teacher feedback. We know that it is really important for the kids to receive feedback from us, and we want to be sure they know where to find it.
