Week 3 - Integumentary System

Week 3... INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM

Click HERE for the notes I gave in class - they are self explanatory and really not necessary, just wanted to front load you with some information before you guys opened up your MT textbook!

Make sure to read the entire chapter, take notes, etc... I will NOT be collecting any of that though!
I will collect pages 73-82.  You can either photocopy the pages and write your answers in or just respond on a piece of binder. Either way works for me.  remember these packets are going to be equal to the same points as the test to offset any bombing of the exams so put the time into them and don't rush it.  Its a win win for you - you get the points for the assignment and it also helps you study for the test.

Also check out this amazing video on sun damage - SUNSCREEN VIDEO, there will be questions on the test from the video! 

What does next Wednesday look like for you...

AM - you will have a sub in the morning as I have my daughter's music performance that am. I will try to be back for third period but may or may not make it.  You will need to turn in your timesheet, your journal, your integumentary packet and take your integumentary test.

PM - I will be back for your class! Make sure to have your time sheet, journal, integumentary packet ready to turn in and that you are ready to test.

EVERYONE
You are invited to a Med Occs Holiday Party from 2-3 where am and pm can come together meet each other and we can share in some holiday cheer! Look for a sign up genius to bring something to share! Hope everyone can make it!

Also, I need everyone to register at BOTH Chabot and Las Positas for Spring 2019! This will allow us the greatest flexibility when the time comes in case we need to use one class or another. This must happen before NEXT Thursday!

Click HERE for INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO REGISTER WITH LAS POSITAS

Chabot's CATEMA process is the same, however I don't believe you will find my name there yet... I am still waiting on them to upload my name into the data bank, as soon as they do that I will let you all know! Thank you - Schreiber

Mondays Schedule

Hello All...

I have received lots of texts/emails about tomorrow. Here are your most frequently asked questions and my responses, I am also reposting tomorrow's schedule as well as some things to remember.

FAQ's
1.  Does LHS/GHS have to go to their third period final tomorrow am at Granada?
answer: NO, you will either attend Kaiser orientation in the afternoon or you will start site Tuesday am.  If your site is flexible with their site times you can go during your final for our class, but let me know.  In my opinion, I would probably wait and just start at normal time on Tuesday. 

2. Do we wear scrubs to Kaiser orientation?
answer: From here on out you wear scrubs every day except Wednesday.

3.  When does PM start site, Monday or Tuesday?
answer: If you are a PM student (this includes students moving from AM to PM, Ariella, John, etc...) you GO TO SITE TOMORROW!

4.  Do Kaiser students start Monday or Tuesday?
answer: ALL KAISER STUDENTS ATTEND ORIENTATION TOMORROW AT KAISER LIVERMORE FROM 1-3.

If you have any question about where you are to go tomorrow, just text me.

THINGS TO REMEMBER FOR YOUR FIRST DAY/WEEK AT SITE

• It is a privilege just to be at a site. Be HONEST, HUMBLE, & HARDWORKING
• You are to arrive no less than 15 minutes early
• All piercings need to be out except one pair of studs, absolutely no plastic, clear hole holders (LOL, I forget what you call these). I will pull you from site if you have piercings other than studs in.
• Hair is to be pulled back
• You should have your little mead notebook and be jotting everything down.
• Bring your Community Classroom Binder! Make sure to journal each night and write your time in and out down!
• Copy me on your emails to your site supervisor so I know what you are communicating with them. 
• Make sure to give your parents one bright pink emergency form, your site supervisor one bright pink emergency form, and I will collect the third and final bright pink emergency for min class on Wednesday! 
• I will see you all in class Wednesday!

EVERYTHING YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW FOR YOUR FIRST DAY
Now that Friday crazy is over... thank goodness... we can get back to business.

I was so disappointed that we did not get to have our orientations for our dental and vet students. I am so sorry, but I do not see how we can reschedule them and get you out to site...

With that said, let's talk about the first day...

FIRST DAY OF SITE WILL BE... Monday, November 26th EXCEPT for AM students going to either Stanford, vet or dental sites.

So if you are a PM student you are GOING to site.

If you are a KAISER AM OR PM student we have moved the Kaiser orientation to the afternoon to accommodate our students who are taking finals that day so ALL kaiser students will attend.

BADGES
I will hand out photo ID's in class on Wednesday, November 28th! Please let your site supervisor know that because of the school closures there was no way for me to get them to you. I will be at some of your sites on Monday and if I am there I will pass them out to you, but there is no way I can get them to all of you. Don't stress about it, just use the one without the ID for the first day or two!

COMMUNITY CLASSROOM BINDER
You must have your community classroom binder with you at site at all times.  Ask your supervisor where you can leave your keys, water bottle and binder. They usually have a place or a locker of some sort where you can store these items. Take NOTHING else into site with you! Make sure to lock your cell in your car, and park appropriately!

Thank you ALL for your flexibility last Friday! I greatly appreciate it, I was scrambling... and honestly a little annoyed only because I really wanted to have everything tight and dialed in for us before we started. Looks like another life lesson, we don't control our circumstances, just how we respond to them! SO THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU FOR BEING SO FLEXIBLE! I greatly appreciate it!

Good Luck to my LVJUSD kiddos on their last finals, Happy Thanksgiving to all and wishing you all an AMAZING first day of site!

Hugs - Schreiber :)
PS - please comment your name so I can check off that you have read the following info. If you know a student in our class does not get the reminds about blog updates, please text them and tell them to check the blog! Thanks - Schreiber
