• 5:16 Morning Message: Monday, April 6, 2020 (DL Day 11)

  Good morning,
  This is our Morning Message for Wk 3, Day 1 of (DL). We will be transitioning to Google Classroom this week. Therefore, I need each of you to log into your class' room today. If you have a packet and NO WAY to work on the Classroom, that is fine FOR NOW. But that should change this week.

• 3:52 Science 6 G'Day for April 1, 2020

  Good morning, Science 6!
  
  Today is Wednesday, April 1, 2020. Just a quick note- everything in the news is saying the social distancing and staying at home *is* slowing down how fast the virus is spreading- keep it up! The slower it spreads, the better we can take care of the people who *do* catch it.
  
  Today we get into the whole solar system thing. You should have done the Study Island about the Solar System activity by now. Today we're going to start finding out about how the solar system was created in the first place- starting with a little thing called "Gravity." The study Island assignment for today is Strength of Gravity, and you can find it by going to "My Classes" on your Study Island page. I'm pretty sure most of you have already done this for homework, but we need to be solid on this for the next part.
  
  Here's the schedule: First, do the Study Island thingie, including practice questions. If you get stuck, or have any questions, I have office hours today and every school day in my Zoom room from 10 am to 12 noon. Come by to say hi and get any questions answered!
  
  New lesson on Friday, and remember I'm reading a whole book a little bit at a time, called "The Graveyard Book," and it starts with a triple homicide and a toddler adopted by ghosts. Heck, I'm enjoying it!
  
  Lastly, there's a link to a British fitness guy, calls himself "The Body Coach" or something, and he's running a 5 minute workout on YouTube every day for school kids not in school. He does it like in the Britain- Dojo me when you figure out how many hours difference there is between London and Phoenix because of time zones. I miss having your class watching me yell at kids in the hallway- hope we can do it again! Talk to you soon, everyone!

• 1:37 Morning Message: Thursday, April 9, 2020 (DL Day 14)

  Morning Message for 4C and 4D for Day 14 of Distance Learning. There are no new lessons for today. Students will need to finish all lessons in Study Island and in Google Classroom (share with me by end of day). Today, though, is the day that you should finish the assignments posted by your specials teachers.
  
  We should have finished our transition, yet I have only a few students from each class logged in. This is a District requirement. If you have liked /viewed the posts on Dojo, then you have seen your Username/PW/class code (ELA and Math for your section) and should be logged onto the Classroom by now. If you need assistance (help) with this, please let me know.
  
  I look forward to seeing each of you. We will be Zooming at 9:30, 12:30 and 2:30.

  IMPORTANT: None of the items linked here are approved by the CDC, and none are considered fully protective. They may be, however, better than nothing if you need to protect yourself or a loved one and no approved items are available for sale.

• 22:38 Reading a book on video for some reason: The Graveyard Story by Neil Gaiman, pgs 01-20 (Not required)

  I will be reading a book here out loud that I've wanted to read for a long time- The Graveyard Story by Neil Gaiman. He's an odd writer- which is why I like his stuff so much. Nothing he writes is the same thing twice- not even his sequels. This is *NOT* an assignment- you can listen or not, read the book on your own, whatever. It's just something I can share with you all during these truly weird times we're living through right now. WARNING: This is not a violent book, but it *does* start with a series of murders described very poetically in passing. And someone hunting a toddler. And ghosts.
