Remote Learning ELA and French Menu of Options - Extending the Learning

Hello Everyone! 

Mr. Nemeth and I will be meeting with you (30 minutes each) from 10:30-11:30 each school day to provide direct instruction, guide learning and answer questions. During this time we will be working the same assignments students are doing at school.

Those of you working remotely will also have a list of ELA and French activities you can chose to work on each day independently. These are activities to do once you have completed the daily work as posted in the General section of your ELA and French TEAM.

Each day, choose a few activities to work on. The goal is to spend 1-2 hours a day engaged in ELA and French activities.

Here is the list of activities you can work on independently beyond what is assigned in class. Please note that these activities can be worked on along side the posted assignments you are working on.

Please note that students will be working on similar activities at school with the guidance of both me and our supporting adults.

Reading 

To begin spend at least 15 minutes per day reading for interest and/or pleasure. You may choose to read a novel, graphic novel, picture book, magazine, e-book, audiobook, or any other reading materials you have available. For ebooks, check out the following:

Writing

Spend 15 - 20 minutes writing. Chose a writing prompt from our Monthly Writing Calendars, the Extending Writing Prompts or a topic of your choice. The prompts can be found in the files section of ELA, as well as on the classroom blog here.

Listening and Viewing

Watch the free daily video on BrainPop.com and complete any related activities, such as the quizzes, mind maps or games. You can also check out the following sites:

For French, please work on the assignments as assigned in your 7E/7F French Team. If you have time, please do 15-20 minutes of Duolingo each day. The link to your class account can be found in your French TEAM.

I hope this post gives you a few ideas of things you can work on if and when you have your daily assignments complete and/or are waiting for new assignments to be released. 

As always, please email or send me a chat if you need any help or support! As well, if you like, leave a comment below to tell me what you are working on!

Ms. Steinhoff
