Assignments/Materials will be posted daily unless it is an ongoing project.

You do not need to be physically present however, at the beginning your child will need assistance in logging in to Schoology at the beginning of the "Live" sessions.  She may need your assistance with assignments as well.  She will also most likely need help uploading assignments.]]> 2020-08-20 19:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_ramirez1/h8flfb97yrdpqv7d/wish/690310304 https://padlet.com/jennifer_ramirez1/h8flfb97yrdpqv7d/wish/690360487 When will we be given the  access to the schoology for our child?
