Norms of Class:
~40 minutes of class time, 20 minutes of Q&A
~People will stay muted, and I will unmute people if we are heading into discussion. Use the chat box to let me know if you have something to contribute to discussion!
~Hour 2 Recommendations:
*10 minutes of silent meditation (If silence is too difficult, download and try an app like Insight Timer, which is free. There are other apps like Calm that are also great!)
*20 minutes of independent reading
*20 minutes of working on the homework assignment and turning it in!
*10 minute conversation or letter writing! Call someone you haven't talked to in a while, or strike up conversation with someone in your home OR write an email or text/DM to someone who you haven't connected with in a while who you care about! Take this opportunity to connect with other people!
Day 4: Powerpoint (There are notes by Ms. Jamie in the notes section of each slide!)
Homework:
1. Create an Instagram Post on Canva. In 22 words (and a one word title), describe a scene--a place or experience--that you miss and appreciate that is not at the moment possible during quarantine. The title should reveal what this scene or place is, but the body of the writing should use language to show and not tell, to imply with details so readers can infer what is being described.
2. Create a 1 minute video
Tell us, in as much detail as possible, about something that is different now. It should be something that you saw or experienced before quarantine and also saw or experienced now, during quarantine. Tell us about the major differences and why you think they are so different.

Email from Mr. Schwartz below for those wanting Physics/Math:
Dear Families,
As this pandemic continues throughout our communities and the need for our students to continue their education, I am offering some resources to help with this objective. Once we are able to return to traditional classes we will be taking a deep dive into Algebra for math and start working on simple machines, mechanical advantage and efficiency in physics. The following lessons will help prepare you for these upcoming classes.
Links: Algebra 1, System of Equations https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra/x2f8bb11595b61c86:systems-of-equations
Absolute Value and Piece Wise Functions https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra/x2f8bb11595b61c86:absolute-value-piecewise-functions
Inequalities (systems & graphs) https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra/x2f8bb11595b61c86:inequalities-systems-graphs
Physics, Simple Machines https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/discoveries/simple-machines-explorations/a/simple-machines-and-how-to-use-this-tutorial
Mechanical Advantage https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/work-and-energy/mechanical-advantage/v/introduction-to-mechanical-advantage
I hope this helps in the passing of time in this unprecedented event and help you stay engaged with your school. Stay healthy, wash your hands and I look forward o seeing you all very soon.
Sincerely,
Kurt Schwartz
