 Hello Parents!

Happy New Year! I hope this post finds you all well and rested from the holidays. I also hope you were all able to connect with family and friends even from a distance. It is my sincerest hope that 2021 brings you all an abundance of love, peace and health. Below is some information as to what this coming week will look like. As always, please reach out to me with any questions you may have. 

Google Meets

Students are not sent a link. Sorry about this. We got instruction on the weekend to set up the link on Hapara. It's simple, they are to go onto the Student Portal and find the Google Meet icon and join the meeting from there. I hope this makes sense. They will do this each day as per the schedule below.

Online Learning

I will be online with the students as the schedule below shows. I will be following our regular schedule as much as possible. I have posted our Weekly Learning Plans in the Slide Deck of Hapara just as I have been doing since the start of the year. Monday and Tuesday are updated so far. I will continue to update as the week goes on. The students will have breaks and time to work independently throughout the day so they do not need to be looking at a screen the entire time. Please feel free to use your own judgement when it comes to the time they are online. You have access to all the plans so you can use the materials to suit your family's needs. The students will have time with Mme. Pepe as they usually do during the second block.

God Bless,

Mrs. Akl
