FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE STRUGGLED TO GET/KEEP GOING ON THIS DISTANCE LEARNING THING, KEEP READING!

-Call this the Clean Slate Protocol (thanks Iron Man 3)...here's how to get back on track:

1) Ignore everything before this week. April was tough. If it maxed you out, you aren't the only one. This isn't how we're meant to do business. Forgive yourself for not being 'whatever' enough to just jump on the new thing and go.

2) Pick up from this week (Week 6 in the Classwork tab). Zero penalty...I MEAN THAT. Having you back is far more important.

3) Choose ONE assignment from the week (or the Culminating Assignment, if your class has one)...that's all you're responsible for each week. Again, YOU'RE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE ASSIGNMENT EACH WEEK!

4) Do the assignment as efficiently as you can, and submit it through Classroom. If it's done by the due date, great; if not, finish it up and get it to me as soon as you can...I just want to see your work and respect your energies.

-That's it. I know many folks have looked at that Classwork page and it stressed them out. Sorry for that...trust me when I say that getting on track isn't as overwhelming as it must have seemed.

-If you've any questions, concerns, or if you just want to get some one-on-one conversation going, remember I am regularly available via email at mjamie@pps.net, and during Office Hours Tuesday through Thursday from 100pm-145pm at meet.google.com, code: millerwhsofficehours

Hope to hear from you all soon!
