Per Cobb County Digital Learning will now only take

place on Monday-Thursday with Friday being used to
catch up on any work. I am still going to continue our
Zoom on Fridays from 10-10:30. It is optional, but we
will be doing our Read Aloud on Monday and
Wednesday, so there will be less time for chit chat on
those days. I think it will be helpful for students to have
Friday Zooms to get to interact and talk to each other.
They can also ask me any questions about work they
may have. I would just like for it to be casual and a time
to hang out.
I know many are concerned about getting their supplies
from the classroom. As soon as I hear something about
that I will let you know. Everything is just as they left it
and I will not throw any of it out. Please reassure your
child that it will be there for them whenever we are
allowed to get it.
