Students & Parents,
This page will assist you with knowing what to do during a non-traditional instruction/snowSMART
day.

What is a non-traditional instructional day or snowSMART day?
This is another term for a "snow day" in which students must work/complete assignments from
home. However, we do have snow days built into our district calendar. We also have time for makeup
days that we will add to the school year before resulting to the non-traditional instruction (NTI)
day. Therefore, this day will be used in an emergency situation and you will be notified if and when
the district intends to use it.

What lesson will my student need to complete on a non-traditional instruction day?

If your student sees Ms. Armstrong in a small group, the assignment will be listed.

You will be able to access all of these assignments from our teacher Google Classroom page. For each assignment, your student will have a short lesson and a corresponding activity that will be due to the teacher upon returning to school.

How will we correspond with the teacher(s) if we have questions?
The  grade level  team has decided to make two options available to students and parents to
communicate on an NTI (snowSMART) day. First, our e-mails are always a good bet so that we can
communicate back and forth. Second, Google Classroom will be set up for each grade level. All
information will be posted. You can leave comments. We will respond in a timely
manner.  My email address is anita.armstrong@christian.kyschools.us

What if we do not have internet access?
If you do not have internet access, please check no on the form that was sent home with your
student and return to school. We will prepare your student's NTI (snowSMART) folder with nontechnology
assignments.

Where are the assignments located?
Please see your homeroom teacher's web page to access your class snowSMART Day Assignment
Sheet.   For those first graders who see Ms. Armstrong for Reading Recovery each day, the assignments will be on my school web page under Snow Smart Assignements by Grade/Day.
