Dear Parents and Students,

Aside from content teaching, I am researching the easiest ways for students to complete and submit assignments. So far students have been submitting assignments in Google Classroom in one of two ways: 1. taking a picture of the workbook page or 2. filling out a Google Forms that I have sent to them.

There are other ways to submit assignments that you may try out if you feel ready to take on a challenge...To be clear: the following is not mandatory.

I assigned PDFs for both English and SS that are due tomorrow. I asked students to write the answers on a separate sheet of paper, take a picture, and submit. Another way to do this is to annotate directly on the PDF. I personally do not know how to do this yet, but if your child knows how to or wants to learn how to, that is another acceptable way to submit an assignment. Here is a video that might be helpful if you want to try this way out. https://youtu.be/bRmJb6n9xm8

Warmly,

Ms. Bouvet
