I hope all is going well for you.  Make sure to spend a little time outside (by yourself!) and maybe even playing some of those old school board games with the family!

To make sure everyone has a fresh start for the new term I will grade and record both 3-2 and 3-2A on Friday, March 27th.  The next assignment will be posted on Friday, March 27th.

Call, text or email if you have any questions or need help.  I can also help you "in person" with my online classroom.

What's next?

First of all, we are all going to get through this.  I can't guarantee what happens elsewhere, but I can promise you your class will carry on with a minimum amount of disruption!

It's great that you found this blog, because this is where everything begins.  Everything you need to know will be posted or linked here (just like it has been all year).

If you need help with your classwork, we can meet either in person or virtually.

If you would like to meet virtually just click this link: whereby.com/davis2020. We can meet in this manner from anywhere, as long as you have either cellular data or the internet. I will be available virtually from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM each day.

If you would rather meet in person simply use the calendar below to set up an appointment and we can connect in our classroom.  These 15-minute appointments are available from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM each day. (see the post below to schedule you "in-person" visit.)

You, Inc / Entrepreneurship

While we are away from school, I would like you to watch one episode of Shark Tank a week (sort of like in the old days when we met in a building!).  Just use the same form as always and name it 1-LastName-ST-DATE.  Replace the word DATE with the actual date.

A "regular" assignment will be posted on Monday.

New Details on Assignments

I guess we are all learning as we work our way through this insanity.  After a clarifying letter from the administration, I am making a few changes to my classes.

First of all, the assignments that were posted on Wednesday and Thursday of this week will not be due until Friday, March 27th.  This week was supposed to be an "end of term" time to get caught up.

Moving forward, I will post assignments each Monday, and they will be due on Friday.  I am no longer differentiating between "A" Days and "B" Days.

So . . .  assignments will be posted on March 30th, April 6th . . . You get the idea!

So, you are thinking one of two things right now.  One, "I am glad I got it done so quickly because now I have a bunch of free time."  Or, two, "I haven't even thought about the assignments, but now I have some extra time to get them done.

Whatever . . .  just make sure your assignment is completed by Friday, March 27 and submitted properly!
