May 1-15 Due Dates List

This may make things more organized for you.  I also posted this in Files in Office 365 Teams.  

I have put listed your assignments in Teams for the May 1-15, but not necessarily the PPTs, documents, etc. May 1st is also listed on the April Calendar. 

I'll make another for May 15-31 if we are still closed.  

Last Call for Missing Work!!

Just a reminder, if you have not done this week's assignments I am required to submit your name to Administration tomorrow.  Get your missing work handed in to me to avoid being on that list!!  See Teams for details & Thinkwave for what you're missing!!

Reminders!

1.  Work will only be accepted for credit via email, as established several weeks ago.  It's a pain for me, to, but is the best way I have found to get your written work & record it.  Remember, none of us were trained n doing school from home so work with here!

2.  READ the assignment description so you complete it correctly.

3.  Turning in work early for extra credit is useless if you do not turn in other assignments on time!

4.  Missing assignments F-Th forces me to put you on the required "not doing assignments" weekly list to Administration.

5.  Thinkwave is updated daily (anytime between 9 & 2 pm) - anything blank was not turned in...GET IT TO ME ASAP!

6.  Don't forget about participation...and the easiest way to do that is post a question regarding that day.s PPT.  It's OK to participate only on PPT Days or "B Days" - but be sure you do it on at least those days!!  Post in the "General Posts" in Teams for this.

7.  Follow the procedure from last week in Posts if you have a blank in Thinkwave but believe you sent me the work.

8.  I am online 7:30 am - 2 pm.  If you experience any issues, email or Teams Chat me so I can get back to you right away.  As always, if you contact me outside of this time frame I will likely not get back to you until the next school day.

Stay safe, stay healthy, cover your face if you go out, practice social distancing, pick up meals at the location closest to you if your family is in need (bring a larger bag to make it easier to carry them home, and be sure to log it for yourself if you walk there...maybe you can get some Gym class credit?), check the BUFSD hoe page for tech issues or other updates, and if you experience symptoms of Covid-19, call the number on the BUFSD Home Page regarding getting tested.

Not doing your work? I must now report you...

Head's up!!

Starting Monday, teachers will be required to submit a weekly list to Mr. Callan of any student who does not complete the online work for the week.  The names are submitted Friday mornings.  This will continue until we are back in school.

We just got an email about it, so I'm letting you know in advance so you can stay off that list!!

Enjoy your weekend, stay safe!

Online Grading Policy starting Monday, 4/20

April Due Dates List

This may make things more organized for you.  I also posted this in Files in Office 365 Teams.  

I have put listed your assignments in Teams for the rest of April, but not necessarily the PPTs, documents, etc.  

I'll make another for May if we are still closed.  

ADD Ch 20 Video WS to 4/21.

Class Work Files are Moving Here...

From now on, all of my handouts & PPTs will be posted in "Class Materials."  This "allegedly" makes it a read-only" file for you.  Let me know if there are any issues!

Deleting & Changing Files & PPTs Continues Despite Many Warnings

Several classes have lost both make-up credit & regular credit because classmates continue to erase, delete, or type directly onto Files (handouts, video packets etc.), as well as delete PPT slides & audio from PPT slides.

I warned you against this for 2 weeks (more, in some cases), and now am keeping a list of offenders to turn into Admin if it becomes necessary.  Once a file has been "vandalized" it will no longer be accepted for credit, over-due or not.  If a page is deleted, no one will get full credit as the entire assignment cannot be turned on.  Don't blame me, blame your classmates that continue to do this.  Same goes for the PPTs.

New Assignments

New assignments have been posted in Teams,  Be sure you are checking there daily & submitting work per the instructions!

Make Up Work Grades

If you do any make up work, you will receive an email back that I got our work, same as when you turn it in on time.  However, all make up work will be entered at once on Friday, 4/17.  Be sure you do enough to improve your 3rd MP average.  Remember, we don;t know how the 4th MP will go so you want to get the highest average you can now!

Parents Notified if Currently Failing

If your Thinkave average is below 70, an email or text was sent to your parent/guardian today to let them know you are failing or near failing the 3rd MP.  The only chance you have to pass at this point was explained to you in the 2 audio messages I posted for you this morning.

I will not be addressing any more "what do I have to do?' "how am I failing?" "what am I missing?" emails.  Look at Thinkwave, listen to the audios, your answers are there..

If you are going to claim you sent something that you have a blank for in TW & I missed it (which, of course, is possible) them you must send me a picture or screen shot of your original email that shows the subject or work, my email address, the date & time your email was sent.  I will look for it if that is received.  That is the only proof that you sent that work by the deadline.

Remember, there is no more sending work in Teams, and turning it in through Teams was ever an option.  It is email only, 1 assignment per email.  Your name & assignment must be in the subject field or it will go to spam.

Remember your deadlines to get make up work in.  They are firm. 3rd MP grades will be entered right after the deadline expires.

Can't Hear the PPT Audio?

If you can't hear the audio in the PPTs, you are to log into Khan Academy, go to our course, & then topics of the PPT.  Watch each of the videos that correspond to the PPT or Chapter.  There are no questions that go with it, just the video to replace your missing the audio PPT lecture.  It will show me you did this, so please be sure you are getting it done by the deadlines to watch the PPTs.  If you CAN hear the audio in the PPT, you are not required to do this, but you can certainly do it if you have some free time & want to know more about any topic we've covered.

Regents Update - Read ALL of This!

If I am reading what the Board of Regents released correctly, 

you will be exempt from a Regents exam 

IF you pass the class.

If you fail the class, you will have to take it again & pass the Regents.

If you are graduating in June and fail a class such as mine, 

you will not graduate or be exempt from the exam, since you will have to take the class again.

Be VERY motivated to pass my class, look at Thinkwave & make good decisions!

Tuesday, 4/7

Hi all ~ I can't manage to stay in Office 365 for 5 minutes without it kicking me out or it locking up.  I recorded the work in Chats or send a message about it to you.  I have been unable to check email so will record that & reply to you once I can get in.  Until then, work on your Khan Academy assignments, Castle Learning Exam, & notes with your extra time today.  I'll post a PPT once I get in.  I DID leave you a written message for today as I was kicked out of the 1st audio message I tried to leave.

I'll keep trying Office 365, just like I tell you to do.

ALSO DUE 4/13: Khan Academy

I have assigned 5 things in Khan Academy, they are due by 4 pm on Monday, 4/13.

Can't hear the PPT audio?

If you can't hear the audio in the PPTs, you are to log into Khan Academy, so a basic search for your course & then topic of the PPT.  It will show me you did this, so please be sure you are getting it done.  I can give you participation points for this.  

DUE 4/7: Sign up for Khan Academy (free)

You must sign up for Khan Academy, and your user name must be your first & last name or your assignments will not be given credit.

https://www.khanacademy.org/join/9UU83E9M

DUE 4/10: Ch 18 Exam

Your Chapter 18 old-style content question test is now open in Castle Learning.  It will close at 10 pm on Friday, 4/10.  Remember, all previous chapters are fair game to show up on your exam so be sure to review those topics in Quizlet, too!

If you fail to start or compete the exam by the deadline, at which time the exam will lock, you will get the score reported by CL.

As we are in a unique situation with online learning, I will allow the second-chance credit grade for this exam.

DUE 4/6: Ch 18 Quiz

Closes 4/6, see Assignments in Teams for details.

DUE: 4/6: Ch 17 Video Packet

Print out the questions OR on separate paper if you don;t have the packet from class. You must either scan & email your work to me as an attachment to that email, or you can take screen shots to attach to an email.  Please do not post on Teams as I will be unable to enlarge it enough to give you credit. and if I can't read it, I cant give you credit.  If you are taking screen shots, please be sure they are close up.  You will need to take several to get all the answers to me, that's fine. Be sure your email has your 1st & last name & assignment name as the subject.  No, you do not need to write out the questions or use complete sentences.  Answer as you would on a video worksheet.  Due no later than 10 pm on Monday, 4/6.

Reminder about Posts

Don't forget!!

As a reminder, your work due in April was posted in March, so it will still be listed in March.  It will NOT show up under the April menu.  Please keep this in mind as you look for what's due if you don't start it in advance.  I always post early to give you plenty of time to get the work done at your own pace, but this means that you may need to click on the previous month to see the posting.
