Students will receive assignments/worksheets weekly that will reinforce what was learned in class.  The worksheets will be completed on Nearpod using a link that I will provide.  The students will NOT be required to login to Nearpod.  The assignments/worksheets will provide them with instant feedback on their performance.  I will receive a report of their performance once it is completed on the website.  If there are parts of the assignments in which students are having trouble i will post additional information to clarify the topic.
