NEW NEWS***********************************************************
PROJECT SUPPORT There will not be any Projects (green P's) due in OW next week. However, I will be adding an assignment on Monday in OW that will prompt your student to take the Math Placement test in MobyMax, if they have not done so already. The Math Placement Test is a tool to help identify areas that your student might need additional practice in math in the MobyMax program. This test does not count toward report card grades and will not affect your student's placement in their OW Math course. Once they complete the assessment, MobyMax will assign lessons in those areas. I have seen students make incredible gains using this program daily. Please encourage your student to complete the test by the end of next week (they may need your help logging into MobyMax if this is their first time). The test does not have to be completed in one sitting, students can take breaks and come back to it later. Please let me know if you have any questions. Login directions are below:

CONFERENCES HOA conferences will focus on students who may have demonstrated a need for additional support or guidance as an online learner. These families will be invited to conference with teachers. HOA students who are doing well and are on track likely do not need a specific check-in at conference time and will not receive an invitation. Please reach out if you need support or would like a general progress report of how your student is doing. Thank you very much for your assistance in maximizing the usefulness and efficiency of our fall conferences!

1. a student logging in and working in Odysseyware,
2. a student sending a teacher a message in OW,
4. a student attending a Google Meets with the class or teacher, and
5. an email, phone call, or Google Meets from a parent to the teacher.
I hope you all have had a great week!
