Remote Learning Plan

Remote Learning Information

In the event that a remote learning day is called, students will participate in asynchronous instruction. Asynchronous instruction means that students will complete lessons and assignments on their own schedule, rather than in real-time with a teacher. While there will be no live class sessions, all assignments and materials will be provided, and students are expected to work independently to complete the tasks for the day.

If you experience any connectivity issues or difficulties with completing the work, please remember that according to CCS School Board Policy, students have up to five (5) days to submit their assignments upon returning to school. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility with remote learning.

 

Specific instructions for your school's remote learning plan are as follows:

Remote Learning Day Activities

If school is closed due to an unexpected situation, students are encouraged to complete simple learning activities at home. These activities are designed to reinforce important reading, writing, math, and problem-solving skills while allowing students to work independently with minimal materials.

Students in grades K–2 should focus on practicing reading, writing simple sentences, counting, and basic math skills while also staying active and helping at home.

Grades K–2

Students can complete any of the following activities during the day:

  • Read for 20 minutes (to yourself, to a sibling, or to a stuffed animal).

  • Write a short story and draw a picture to match.

  • Practice sight words by writing them three times each.

  • Count to 100 by 1s, 5s, or 10s.

  • Practice math facts or solve 10 addition/subtraction problems.

  • Go on a shape hunt in your house and list or draw the shapes you find.

  • Draw a picture of your favorite place and write 2–3 sentences about it.

  • Help at home by cleaning your room or helping with a chore.

  • Go outside (IF SAFE TO DO SO) and move! Walk, run, or play for at least 20 minutes.

  • Optional technology: Practice reading or math on an approved learning app like iReady.

Students in grades 3–5 should spend time reading, writing, practicing math facts, and completing creative or problem-solving activities that encourage independent thinking.

Grades 3–5

Students can complete any of the following activities during the day:

  • Read for 30 minutes and write a short summary of what you read.

  • Write a paragraph or journal entry about your day or a favorite memory.

  • Practice multiplication/division facts or solve 15–20 math problems.

  • Create a math challenge for a family member to solve.

  • Write a letter or note to a friend, teacher, or family member.

  • Research a topic you enjoy and write 3–5 interesting facts about it.

  • Help at home by completing a household chore.

  • Spend 30 minutes being active (walk, play outside (IF SAFE TO DO SO), stretch, or exercise).

  • Create something: draw, build, write a story, or invent a game.

  • Optional technology: Work on reading or math practice using a school-approved learning program like iReady. 

While some students may choose to use educational technology programs, most activities can be completed using items commonly found at home. Our goal is to keep students engaged in learning even during unexpected school closures.

Please be sure to return any completed work or a note stating what your child completed during remote learning on the first day we return to school.
