They are very clear. When they were faxed, the images were poor. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ Prerequisites should be placed into effect for some classes as well as grade level ______________________________________________________________________ requirements. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ A student’s character as well as maturity level needs to be considered when ______________________________________________________________________ considering that student for placement in a DL class. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ Cell phone and computer usage during class should be addressed. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ Teachers and Aides that will be working together should have the opportunity to meet ______________________________________________________________________ and get to know each other better at the beginning of the school year. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ BOCES Distance Learning Program . .
