Google Hangout Meeting
On Monday, 4/20, our class will be doing our first Google Hangout meeting. The meeting will take place at 11:30AM but will only go for a little while. This time is for everyone to just try to get on and practice working with Google Hangout. We will eventually start doing two meetings a week where we go through mini lessons and check for understanding. I know that 11:30AM is a little early for some people, but unfortunately it was the only time me and Mrs. Glover could both do one. After this first one we are going to try to make them in the afternoon.
Enter a meeting:
- In a web browser, enter https://meet.google.com.
- Click Join or start a meeting.
- Enter siciliano
The code will only work during the meeting, so Monday at 11:30AM is when you can join the meeting!
I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE EVERYONE AGAIN! 😄
Please email me or message me on Remind if you have any questions!
How to check student’s email
This is a video made by our Media specialist, Mrs. Hankins, showing everyone how to check your student’s school email. Please watch it as I will be sending out the Google Hangout link through the kids email. I will try to also post it on my blog and on Remind, but I cannot do that until right before the meeting starts. The email will have the scheduled meeting.

Remind App
Good Morning!
I have sent a Remind App invitation to each family. I have used the primary cell phone number that the school has. If you did not receive an invitation, or would like me to send a new one to a different number please message me and let me know. You can message me right through the blog. We will use the Remind App for updates on assignments, reminders for class, and for easier communication between us! Thank you to the 10 parents who have areal joined! 😊 I will be sending information later this evening about our Google Hangout virtual classroom that will take place on Monday. 👩🏫
Have a wonderful day!!
