April 30th

To say that we are doing many things differently these days is a gross understatement! Before going to explore activites I’ve assigned for today (and some how-to videos), please leave a comment here about what skills (or tools) you have had to learn or improve a lot while working from home.

Please also remember to visit me for feedback & small group discussion online in Teams this morning (also tomorrow). Login to your school Office365 account and go to the calendar in Teams to join the session.

I look forward to your comments, questions & discussion.

I was delighted to see many students’ comments that the demonstrations I gave during our meeting yesterday were helpful. It was certainly frustrating having the difficulties we had with sound!

I’m asking students to reply to an email messsage today that I have sent to your school-assigned Office 365 address to confirm that you are able to read & reply to those messages in Outlook. So check for my email. For help, I have another Teams meeting scheduled for you between 9:30 and 11:30 where I’m available for help & feedback. Join the meeting through the calendar in Teams. And check the list of assigned activites. I’m looking forward to reading (listening to?) your story endings!

I’ve also just added links to some how-to videos in that list of assigned activites to help you in case you are still not sure (or have forgotten) how to do things like login to Office365 or hand in work online.

I am looking forward to our next class meeting online later this morning.  I’ll be posting some new activities after we get a chance to chat at our meeting, there is one creative storytelling option for this week you may want to have a look at sooner rather than later.

Before we meet together, I am hoping most of you will follow this link and complete the short survey there.
