Kayla Lunnon
Welcome back to your 2020-2021 school year! It is bound to challenge us all, but, fortunately, we get to choose the attitude in which we approach this year. GO BENGALS!!
Please see the right hand links to weekly class agendas. Make sure to read the IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
A Few Notes:
- Get in the habit of checking our TEAMS page for messages, assignments and content. You will have a video, task and/or assignment EVERYDAY, even when you are remote.
- The new assignment schedule will be posted for each week on the right. REMEMBER: check āAā Day Cohort Assignment Schedule if your last name falls between A-K and check the āBā Day Cohort Assignment Schedule if your last name falls between L-Z.
- Mathematics is not a subject you can ācramā into one evening or day, it is about habitual practice. Doing a little bit every day is not only going to keep you on to of the work and ensure you do not get behind, but build your mathematical competency!
Please remember you can contact me (klunnon@helenaschools.org) or Mrs. Marks (mmarks@helenaschools.org) through email if you need any assistance with the digital learning environment.
Cannot wait to meet all of you, Mrs. Lunnon and Mrs. Marks
