Frequently Asked
Questions
1. How do I access my child's homework assignments?
- All homework will be uploaded onto Google
Sites and there is a link that takes you directly to it
on the homepage of this
website.
The page is divided by subject and each subject is grouped by each nine weeks on
the school year.
2. What if I do not always have internet or computer access?
- For those that do not have consistent
computer or internet access, a paper copy of my lesson plan for each week will
be included in the class
newsletter sent home with your child every Friday. These newsletters entail the
homework overview for the following week.
3. How do I get into contact with you?
- My email is
bethany.schlesin@smail.astate.edu (No, that is not a typo. The last three
letters of my last name are cut out of my email!!)
and although I do check my email every
day, if it is an emergency or time sensitive I would suggest texting me as I am much more quick to
respond in that
regard. My cell phone number is (870) 680-3876.
4. What academic standards do you use and where can I access them?
- I use the Arkansas State Standards and I
have each standard separated by subject
here.
5. How do you handle absences and missed assignments?
- Please notify me ASAP of any scheduled
absences so that I can provide them with the assignments in advance. I am aware
that things happen
and in the event of illness or family emergency, I will schedule a time during
the day for them to make up any work they must complete at school. I will do
my best to adjust to unforeseen circumstances but it is essential that your
child is at school unless absolutely necessary.
6. Where can I access information about Digital Citizenship?
- You can access the Digital Citizenship website
here, and for
more information and resources provided by myself,
here.
7. How do I help my child with technology that I know nothing about?
- There are tons of resources online that are available for anyone that is
ready and willing to learn. A useful page that serves as an example can be
found
here and
here.
8. What is your philosophy on teaching?
- My teaching philosophy, as well as other information about myself as an
educator, can be found here.
9. How is learning personalized in your classroom?
- During the first couple weeks of school, I assess each student's preferred
learning style and refer back to those results throughout the year. I
include auditory, visual, and kinesthetic teaching methods whenever
possible, however it is very helpful to know a student's preference in the
event that they require additional assistance or instruction.
10. What learning models do you use in the classroom?
- I am a big believer in hands-on learning, whether that be projects,
games, or interactive discussion. Students learn best when they are having
fun!
