[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Growing up, many years ago, if I was out sick I called a classmate to find out what my homework was. I don't recall any illnesses that kept me out for more than a day or two at a time. I'm sure that any teacher I asked would have been kind and compassionate, however. Of course, that was before the internet and assignments available online. And, I was a teacher. If kids were out sick, I helped them when they returned--I don't remember contacting mom to tell her what I was doing to help her kid. So, mom--you may not be aware of what is happening in class. [/quote] This is a good point. I always post my plans (daily and weekly) online. Each entry has links to the day’s notes, slides, and assignments. Students don’t need to ask me what we did during their absence because [b]it is already available online, including any necessary instructions.[/b] [/quote] Not really making a case for the “gift” of attendance here.[/quote]
