Today is an E-Learning Day: From Mr. Ehmen

Good Morning, Parents and Guardians:

This is Duane Ehmen, the principal at Iroquois West Middle School. As noted earlier, today is an E-Learning Day at IWMS. The teachers have posted a Choice Board for this E-Learning Day. The board is posted on Google Classroom, in their Email, on the Weekly Maps, and will be available on Facebook. Also, I wanted to share the attachment of the E-Learning Choice Board. Please see the attachment. E Learning 11 10 25.docx

Specifically for math, IXL does have an App that can be used on a phone, tablet or IPAD.

If your student does not have access to WIFI or a device, we are making this work due at the end of the day on Wednesday, November 12. Students will have time tomorrow and Wednesday to make up any work that they may have missed.

We know unexpected E-Learning days can bring challenges, but we’re proud of how adaptable our students and families are. Thank you for your continued partnership in making learning happen — anytime, anywhere!

Stay warm, stay safe, and have a great day of learning at home!
