Update Owl #2

The First Three Days

We simply can't get over how well your witches and wizards transitioned into their fourth year at Hogwarts. Given all the challenges, it is amazing to consider all that they have already learned:

• How to log in to Clever
• How to board the Hogwarts Express (How to get into our class Zoom room)
• How to use Clever to visit other Zoom classrooms
• Zoom Tools: mute, reaction buttons, taking a poll, using the chat, sharing our screens, changing to a virtual background, navigating breakout rooms, and raising my hand to participate
• Logging into Google Classroom
• Google Classroom Skills: posting on the stream, finding an assignment, adding an attachment and submitting it as a completed assignment, opening a shared document, editing a shared document, posting an edited/shared document, and turning in the assignment.
• Filling out a Google form.
• Taking a photo with the iPad
• Adding an image from the internet to the iPad's photos

We know it is hard to believe but we have been building our classroom culture and forming relationships in the Zoom room too. Breakout rooms, small group work done in Hogwarts houses, and activities designed with relationship building in mind are helping us to build community.

Our First Full Week

Our Schedule

This week we will be following the Student Remote Schedule. The only modification we will make to the schedule is that students will NOT be switching classes YET. That will begin next week. This week, they will be reporting to Professor Brigham's Zoom room for all math, writing, reading, science, and social studies blocks. You can access the schedule HERE.
​There will be no substantial classwork or homework this week. We are continuing our focus on relationship building and technology skill acquisition. We will teach using district adopted curriculums beginning next week (Monday, September 28th).
