Dear PS101 families,
Due to the impending storm, we are preparing for a remote instruction day for Monday. In the event, we do have a remote instruction day, we will let you know.
If we do have a remote instruction day, please make sure your child logs on their Google classroom by 8 AM and follows the schedule below.
During the Remote school day (learning from home), please follow see below which tells you what your child’s virtual school day schedule is.
- The schedule is blended to ensure students have part of their day with live instruction and part of their day with off-line activities so that students are not sitting in front of their computer screen all day.
- What is Asynchronous instruction? This is when students have off-line activities, such as writing, drawing, work on a printout, reading, independent work, at-home treasure hunt, etc.
- What is Synchronous instruction? This is when students are on-line live with their teacher. Ensure your child is online with their camera on when live instruction is occurring as per the schedule above.
- Students follow their normal schedule of the day (whatever day of the week happens to be a Remote Instruction Day) which means students will attend their cluster period as per the normally scheduled time.
- Cluster and AIS Teachers will follow their normal schedule and teach for the first 25 min of the period live/synchronous and then give asynchronous activities for the remainder of the period.
- Related Service Providers (Speech, OT, PT, etc) follow their usual servicing schedule.
Please see below video for steps on how to log onto Google Classroom:
- Log into Teachhub using your child’s DOE credentials.
- Click the Google Classroom app under “PS101 Applications”.
- You will then be redirected to your child’s class on Google Classroom.
