  PE Digital Learning Plan

PE Classroom Digital Learning Plan

What should I do in the event of school being cancelled?

It is your responsibility to check your Teachers Blog for updates which will be updated to reflect what you are expected to be working on at home. There will be a post for what you should complete.

I do not have a computer at home.  How am I supposed to complete the assignment?

If you do not have a computer at home, you may number a piece of paper and complete the assignment on that separate sheet of paper.  You will turn this paper in by taking a picture of your completed assignment and emailing it to me at the following email address: [email protected]

Will you be available to answer questions? How should I contact you with questions?

You can reach me via email ([email protected])

You will be expected to complete all assignments given. Deadlines will be given, and students who do not meet the deadlines will receive zeros.  Cancelled school is not vacation time. You are expected to be completing schoolwork at home during this time. When physical school resumes, we will pick up where digital learning left off. You must stay up to date to avoid falling behind and hurting your grade.

I can be reached in the following ways while we’re learning digitally…
