Remote Learning Plan (I left this on here from last year in case we have to do it again)

1) Visit Mr. Dobbs website each day and check the assignment list to see the plan for the day.
2) Go to the online textbook (see the link above and reminders of username and password).
3) Watch the virtual nerd video for the section we are on (there are 2 videos for some sections).  You should also read and study the examples in the book.  There is also an interactive learning component and a guided instruction component in the online book.  They should be easy for you to find - and those would be other ways of learning the material.
4) Do the assignment from the assignment list on paper just like we did in class this year.  You can check your odd answers with the back of the book.  You won't be able to check the evens.  You won't be able to turn in assignments and receive a grade for them like we normally do.  You are doing the assignments to learn the material and be prepared to do well on quizzes and tests.
5) I will assign quizzes and tests periodically - I haven't decided how often, but it may be more often since we are not grading daily work.  I will have it indicated on the assignment list if there is a quiz or test to take.  I'm not sure what it will look like on the student side of things, but if I've assigned a quiz or test you should be able to see it somewhere when you log in to the online book (Pearson Easybridge).
6) I may not give much advance warning on when a quiz or test will be assigned, but you won't be required to take it immediately.  If you need an extra day or two to study for it, that will be allowed.  The quizzes and tests are taken on your computer and are sent to me electronically (no paper involved for quizzes/tests).

7) You can email me anytime for questions at brian.dobbs@k12.sd.us
8) I will update grades on the portal regularly, so you can keep track of how you are doing.
