Homework
Frequency: includedFeedback: includedDetails: Each week, different projects and collaborative assignments will be posted in the classroom for learners to complete either independently or as a group (depending on the assignment). Learners will watch videos and participate in the interactive activities at their own pace throughout the week.
It will be helpful for learners to have access to a printer and printer paper to print certain materials each week. However, it is not required for the learners to have access to this, and they will be able to complete each week's activities with minimal materials that can easily be found around the home. Modifications can be made for certain projects as needed, and learner creativity is encouraged!
