Check Canvas for supplemental assignments and resources regularly.

Pay attention to possible check-ins offered by your teachers.

Self-advocate. Reach out to teachers, counselors, family members, and peers when you need any help for any reason.

Map out your suggested schedule for the week, considering the remote supplemental learning suggested for you, your teachers’ check-in’s, independent study and reading time, and any collaborative time with group members.
