We are off and running and getting the hang of our new school year.  I love that the kids use the word “glitch” when there is a problem with technology!  A few things I’d like to remind REMOTE learners: start your morning work at 8:00; keep microphones muted and video off during break times.  A few things I’d like to remind IN-PERSON learners; don’t use hand sanitizer gels and sprays randomly in the classroom, bring you Chrome book to school fully charged.  Thanks to all of the 4th grade families for you patience and support.
