Elementary: All elementary students grades K-5 will complete the AMI packet for Day 2. Packets are labeled clearly and were sent home in backpacks. Do not do other packets until alerted to do so. There is a detailed cover letter that will give you all the information you need to be successful on an AMI day. Please be sure and read this letter. As a reminder, completed work returned the first day of returning to school is necessary for students to be marked present (state requirement). Students who are marked absent for not returning the work the following day we return to school will have three days to complete their work per our absent work policy. 6th graders will do virtual work in Google Classroom and have their Chromebooks to use. Reach out to classroom teachers via email with any questions.
Cheer Camp: If anyone K-5 is interested in doing cheer camp, but have not turned in their forms yet, please email chall@laplata.k12.mo.us with student information and shirt size. We will accept forms & money upon returning to school. If you need assistance with camp fee, please reach out to the elementary office.
JrH/HS: 7th-12th grade students are expected to get on Google Classroom for class assignments and direction. All teachers will post their assignments for the day on Google Classroom by 8am. Teachers will have office hours on Google Meets according to the schedule below. Students may login to the Google Meets or email teachers to ask questions and get additional guidance but are not required to do so. Students are required to complete work assigned on AMI days and return the first day of return to earn credit/attendance (state requirement). Students can reach out to teachers for alternative assignments (paper packets) if needed. Chromebooks have been sent home with students and hotspots are always available upon request for internet connectivity.

For the Renaissance, students learned about significant contributors to the Renaissance period in the field of art by creating miniature notebooks providing important information of key players to the Renaissance, as well as their own sketches of famous works of art and sculpture completed by the men/women of the Renaissance.
For Imperial Russia, students are learning about the Czars of Russia before the Russian Empire collapsed and became the Soviet Union. To do this, students are creating a timeline exhibition over the reigns of Russia's Emperors and Empresses. Each student chose a specific Russian ruler to create a timeline over, and when completed, the timeline will be connected and put on display like you would see in a museum.
