The teacher will provide opportunities but for learning a second language it is important for students to go through the βabsorptionβ phase. Some students will want to speak on day one, but some students will need a little longer. Please message your teacher if you have concerns about your childβs participation. Before Class: Be sure to have zoom downloaded and updated on your device. Make sure you are logged into your Outschool account on that device as Zoom links cannot be shared. You will receive a PDF (usually sent on Sundayβs) that you can print or use on a tablet for further interaction in the class. Please have the designated class materials ready before the class meeting. Please have an extra device available for our game at the end of class (a phone or tablet will work just fine!) If you are unable to use another device you will receive a printout when your child enrolls that you can use during the game. Please post on our classroom page after you enroll so we can get to know your learner more! During Class: Please allow student time to adjust to the class. Not all students will be ready to speak on day one but they are learning! Be ready to help with the mute/unmute function or other technology issues that may come up. Please have a quiet learning space. We will use Kahoot! But it is not necessary to have the app. In fact, the App often has glitches but you will be given a QR code to join during class! After Class: You will receive the game link and an additional PDF to practice more from home. The class recording will automatically be posted to the classroom page so that you are able to practice from home if you missed class or if youβd like your learner to review. Refund Policy: If you are unable to attend a live meeting you can: Choose to pause enrollment for that week (your childβs spot in the class may be taken, but you will not be charged for that week and if there is a space open when your pause ends you will automatically en re-enrolled. Choose to un-enroll from the class and re-enroll when your schedule allows. Stay enrolled in the class, with the option of viewing the class recording from home, and guarantee your childβs spot in the class. All changes must be made within 24hr of the class meeting. No refund will be given after 24hr prior to class. If your child is sick please ask to reschedule or view the class recording from home. Zoom Interaction and Safety Reminders: All students must have a video check-in during the first 10 minutes of class or they will be placed in the waiting room for safety reasons. Be sure that your childβs name is displayed in Zoom before logging in. Please show your student the mute and unmute button or sit close by to assist. If there is distracting noise or background noise your teacher will have to mute your learner but we still want them to be able to participate. Only the enrolled learner may appear on the video. Parents or siblings need to be out of the cameraβs view. βββPlease fill out the get to know you questions on our classroom page when your student is enrolled so we have a chance to get to know each other better before class! ββ Please click the link below to learn more about our teachers and classes! https://www.canva.com/design/DAGBphXmSIQ/RC_nxz0MUDTNY58YRin7gA/view?utm_content=DAGBphXmSIQ&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=editor I hope to see you soon, please message us with any questions you have!

Other Details
Parental Guidance
As this class is for very young learners I request that a parent be present, especially for the first few classes. With this age of learner having a parent nearby helps the student feel comfortable and supported. It eases possible stress and encourages positive interactions with the teacher and other students.
