Would you like to see your student’s Canvas classes?
Parents may see what their student sees on Canvas by registering to become a “Canvas Parent Observer.” This is a one-time registration; if you did it last year, then you still have the ability to see Canvas classes. Follow these directions to register.
Quarter 1 Ends Soon
Quarter 1 ends in two weeks, which means PA and MA deadlines are coming soon. Teachers are helping students finish and polish projects, and students are being encouraged to get caught-up with any missing and/or redo assignments now so they may finish with success. Here are some questions you could ask your student to support them during the next two weeks…
Planner: What did you accomplish today? What did you write in your planner? What do you need to do as homework? When is it due?
Homework: What do you need to finish as homework today? What did you write in your planner that you did not finish today at school?
Binder: What is on your “in” side of your folder that you need to do or show me? Are you bringing your binder to school and using it properly? Planner? Pencils?
Check grades daily on Q: When was the last time you checked your grades on Q? What work is missing or needs a redo?
Check assignments on Canvas: Did you click on each assignment to see if you submitted it? Did your teacher leave you feedback? What work is missing or needs a redo?
Absences: Did you use Q and Canvas to find out what you missed? Did you write it in your planner? Do you need help with remembering to do it?
