    Hello all!

    First and foremost, I miss each and everyone of you! I hope you are all staying safe and healthy during this time. 

    AVID: Check the AVID page for more information!

    Now, Language Arts on-line. We will be reading the novel The Watsons Go to Birmingham--1963. This is a book that tackles an unfortunate event in the fight for Civil Rights. Told from the perspective of an Elementary aged boy, this novel is funny, entertaining, and uplifting. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

    There is a PDF version of the text in the Important Documents section. Additionally, I will post Youtube videos of each chapter being read (also in the Important Documents section). 

    There will be a different assignment associated with each chapter. I will post general guidelines for when assignments should be completed, but feel free to work at your own pace!

    Turning in assignments: You can turn in assignments in many different ways. Here are some options:

    1. Write answers on a piece of paper and take a picture of it. Email the picture to nelsone@leonschools.net.

    2. Write answers on a piece of paper and take a picture of it. Send the picture through TEAMS. 

    3. Type answers in an email and send to nelsone@leonschools.net.

     

    I can be reached through email (nelsone@leonschools.net), by calling the school, or through TEAMS (Classlinks. Office 365. Teams.). Please contact me if you have any questions about the assignments, want to discuss the novel, or have a corny joke to share!

     

     Finally, THANK YOU all so much for the Welcome Back banner. It was a very sweet thing to do. Enjoy this picture of Morgan!
