Dear 7th Grade Families, 

I just wanted to keep you informed about how we will be proceeding in the 7th grade in the upcoming weeks.  I know this is a stressful and uncertain time for all of you and your children. My goal is to keep them engaged and learning for the time that we are remotely learning.  I am going to try my best to keep things as “normal” as they can be for them. 

I will be using Google Classroom to post all of my assignments.  Your children are very comfortable with this venue as they have been using it for a few years now.  I have set up a new topic, “Virtual Learning” and will post all of the day's assignments under it. There will be an attendance sheet they will be expected to add their name to and a “TO DO” list attached with all they will need to complete for the day.  Most assignments will be directly submitted through there and most are due on the day they are assigned. If they have to go to another site it will be listed in the classroom for them. On all of the sites that I assign work, I can monitor their progress.  I am able to see if they are working on it, completed it, and in most cases the amount of time they spent on the task. Please remind your children of this.  

I would appreciate your help in monitoring your children to see that they are doing their work.  I firmly believe the routine of school work will be very helpful for their mental well being during this time.  The work will be scheduled to post each day at 8:00 am and is due by 7:00 pm the same day. In the Google Classroom I have encouraged them to set up a schedule for themselves as if they are in school.  By doing this, all work should be completed by 2:00 PM. At this point there will be no work assigned over the weekend. I will also post the assignment on this page so you will be able to see what they are working on. 

Thank you in advance for your help and  cooperation as we try to navigate these unchartered waters together.  If you have any questions please feel free to email me cmulvey@stpeterstpaulschoolsi.org. 

Please stay safe and healthy.  Hopefully we will be seeing you all very soon!

Sincerely, 
Mrs. Mulvey.
