Here it is!!! Your worksheet to complete for MOST Daily Lessons

Algebra content & grading

This is the BEST way to follow along with the lesson. As I teach from the "whiteboard" aka my screen, I encourage students to watch my instruction on their second screen and complete the "worksheet" on their computer. I can view students work, give feedback, and monitor their understanding or if more review is needed.

Grading Breakdown Daily Lessons

Participation Points for Guided Instruction (M-Th 9:45-10:30 AM)There are 2 ways to earn your daily participation points from Guided Instruction: Synchronous: Attend Guided Instruction at the time scheduled for your class, participate/be present, and click "submit" at the end of the class for credit. ***NOTE: it is not acceptable to enter the class (Zoom link) and walk away/stay in the Zoom room past class time signifying you are not truly present nor learning from the instruction. Asynchronous: If you do not attend the scheduled Guided Instruction, you will need to answer ALL questions in the Edio lesson's day bundles to the best of your ability to earn credit. ***NOTE: Skipping the question, typing idk, or entering ...., will result in a zero. Partial points will not be awarded*Note: If I am out of the office for the day (chaperoning a field trip, sick, tech issue, etc.), a recording will be posted, and ALL STUDENTS will need to complete the edio lesson for that day. When this occurs, you will get an email notification and the recording will guide you through the edio questions. Participation Points for Live Instruction: You must attend Live Classroom sessions at the time they are scheduled or watch the recording and complete the activity to receive participation credit.

Retake your quiz or test. The retake variant will have different questions, but will review the same content. The second time around, we want to make sure you are better prepared. To help you with that, I ask that you complete the Khan lessons that correlate to the specific content covered. When you reach out to me to request a retake (edio chat, drop-in hour, tutoring session, email, phone) I will review the Khan lessons to do beforehand to prepare for the retake.

Work-Based Learning Experiences

Career and Technical Education

Work-Based Learning Experiences

Career and Technical Education Pathway. (Caretakers may remember these as Vo-techs.) Engagement in the trades is something CCA can really get behind – that’s where the jobs are! But instead of a Career and Technical Center -where the road ends with Gr. 12 - CCA really leans into robust postsecondary partnerships in the trades via the Evidence-Based Graduation Pathway, where you’ll find two options:

“Successful completion of any concurrent or postsecondary course” allows students to begin their post-secondary studies while they’re still in high school! We call these CHS at CCA and the best part of these options are the stackable credentials students can earn. These credentials mean better jobs with higher pay!

“Acceptance into an institution of higher education” – this means admission to a trade or technical school, a community college, or any postsecondary school relative to the student’s interest.
