Hello My Name Is...
Maria Bass
My virtual office hours are from 9-12 MWF. I will be checking my emails and available for any calls.
I am a collaborative Teacher in 8th Grade English. I co-teach with Teresa Gilliam 1st -3rd period daily
For at least the next two weeks, we will not have school. I don't want you all to lose all the gains you've made this year, so I am posting assignments and practice activities that you can complete to stay on top of the skills we have learned this year. None of these are required, HOWEVER, completing them can only be to your benefit. If you have any questions about how to access anything or about specific assignments, please email me and let me know:
IXL - strands A.1, C.1, F.1- 2, G. - ,2, H.1 - 2, J.1 - 2, K.1, K.3-4, O.2-4, W.2-4

Please follow the guidelines for avoiding groups of people as much as possible in order to stay well, and I am looking forward to seeing you all when this crisis is over. Stay safe!
