Description
Attention Parents and Students: 
 
In order to provide a successful online teaching environment for students to practice their Language Arts skills such as reading comprehension, critical thinking, and literacy, I've posted the following assignments on Compass, Mentoring Minds, and RAZ KIDS (A-Z Learning). Each assignment is designed to help students expand and build their knowledge in Language Arts. 
 
For students that are unable to access the internet on a computer or tablet can pick up the workbooks/packets and supplies each Monday on campus. 
 
I believe that it is very imperative to have a strong relationship not just with my students but with parents as well to achieve student success! Therefore, I will make it my duty to stay in contact with all parents and students via cell phone (832)-767-8533, email: kaelynn.keaton@arrowacademy.org, Class Dojo, and on my web-page in which you can subscribe to in order to receive weekly updates! I look forward to engaging with the each of you, please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions.
