Spring Break

Good Afternoon Everyone,
 
This will be my last post before Spring Break. I hope you are all doing well. A reminder that I will be posting Grades by the end of next week. Please if you have not done so, please finish the assignments. The assignments can be listed below:
 
 
If you are having problems or cannot complete the assignments before next week, or there is something else that you are not sure of, please let me know ASAP so we can make arrangements. You are all fantastic students and I really enjoy being able to share this knowledge with you all. Today will be the last day we do the Rosary before the break starts, so we will not resume the optional Rosary on the following Monday, the 20th of April. There will also be no classroom meeting next week. Enjoy your break and we will see you again the following week.
 
God Bless you all +
Mr. Coulombe

Week 4

Good Morning Everyone,
 
I hope you have had an awesome weekend. This post is a reminder of our weekly classroom meetings which are as follows:
 
4th Grade (all students): Wednesdays @ 2-2:30 PM
6th Grade (all students): Mondays @ 1-1:30 PM
7th Grade (all students): Wednesdays @ 11-1130 AM

Important note: For zoom meetings, we are now required to provide a password to access the meeting. I will provide that password shortly before each meeting.
 
There is also an optional rosary every school day from 3:00 until 3:30 PM and is extra credit (so far we have had a few students join us last week). Feel free to join us and email me for the login information. There will be no Rosary on Thursday or Friday due to Holy Week.
 
I hope this helps. Later tonight, I will post this week's lesson plans.
 
Mr. Coulombe

Week 3

Good Afternoon 6th Grade and Parents

Welcome to the third week of class. I hope that all of you have been adjusting to the new schedules. I want to give you a preview of what we will be doing this week:

This week, we will go over the meaning of covenants and the difference between a covenant and a contract. We will also go back and revisit the covenant that God had made with Noah and his family after the Flood. We will briefly discuss sin and redemption. On Monday and Wednesday, I will post an assignment on each day. Please make sure you have at least 30 minutes of uninterrupted time before starting each assignment. If you are going to be late with the assignment, please let me know.

Please remember that we will be having a class meeting on zoom tomorrow (Monday) @ 1 PM. This counts for weekly participation. I will be having the login information in Google Classrooms in the announcements section later tonight. See https://classroom.google.com/ 

If for some reason you cannot make this session or if you are having trouble with the homework, feel free to contact me so that I can make the necessary adjustments. 

Yours in Christ,
Mr. Coulombe

Religion Class tomorrow.

Good Afternoon Students and Parents,
 
This is a reminder that tomorrow we will have our weekly class session online tomorrow at 1:00 PM. Details will be at https://classroom.google.com/. If you have any questions, feel free to call or email me.

Grades

Hello Students and Parents,
 
I've graded some homework and sent back graded copies. Many of you did quite well. For those who didn't do so well, I have sent back copies with my comments. Please take a look at those comments. If you wish, you may retake any of the assignments I have sent back for a better grade.

Week 2

Good Afternoon,

Welcome to Week 2. During week 1, I wanted to keep it light to give you all a chance to get used to the new systems that we have in place. Some of you have asked me how I am going to grade the class, especially with the upcoming weeks. This is how I will be grading:

  • 35% Assessments
  • 35% Assignments (what was formerly classwork and homework)
  • 10% Participation
  • 20% Reflection Papers

Any assignments that I send out will be short answers or multiple choice questions that students will be expected to complete. They will be based on the videos that I post or discussions that we have each week. 

I will be giving 3 participation points each week. The first point will be for watching videos that I post from time to time. These videos will be found on the webpage as well as the google classroom. The second point will be on our class discussions we will be having via zoom. I will be sending out more information on this, but basically these discussions will be on Mondays from 1-1:30. This is a chance for students to ask questions that they have during the week. If for some reason you cannot make this time period, then you should email me. The last participation point will be for a question or two that I send out every week. This will be like class discussion and students will have a chance to respond to me and to each other. 

Finally those reflection papers. There will be four points each. In these papers I am searching more on what we are discussing and how this speaks to you. Sometimes I may assign a saint or a topic and I would like to see how this may apply to your life or how you can reflect upon this somehow. Don’t be concerned with getting the right answer per se, I am more interested in how you approach the topic. 

I hope this works out. Again, if anyone is feeling overwhelmed, please let me know and I can make adjustments to our schedule. This is something that is new for all of us, so please be patient if something doesn’t work right. I will be immediately available to help any student between the hours of 10-12 on Monday and Friday and 9-11 on Tuesday. You can reach me anytime via Google Voice at (213) 787-7456‬ or email [email protected] 

Mr. Coulombe

Week 1

Good Afternoon Everyone,
 
Some of you have not completed the assignments last week. I kept it light because I know many of you are adjusting to this new atmosphere. To sum up, there were three assignments last week:
  1. Please watch the video on youtube if you have not done so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUQB_myCZ5o
  2. Please take the studying at home quiz: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1MCtuJKBbIXfjYMQXwIuXmO_MJtMZn-YvM5comyB92Ik/edit
  3. Write a reflection paper on the video. A question I would like to ask as that if we place God in the center of our lives, than how would it apply to working or studying at Home.
Many of you have already sent these items to me, but many of you have not so try to do it as soon as possible. If you are having problems, please email or call me. My email is [email protected] and my Google Voice is: 213-787-7456. We will also be setting up a zoom meeting which all of you will be able to talk to me at least once a week.
