Please continue to turn in signed computer use agreement forms and google apps for education forms. We need to enter this in Powerschool, so we do need them from all grades. For second through fifth grade, I will email your student gmail information as I receive the forms. 

I added a tab at the top of the staff blog for chromebooks. You'll always have one spot to go back to for reference. There are cheat sheets for drive, sharing, the classroom app, and ideas for integrating with instruction. 

Chromebooks

The first lessons with the chromebooks should be about digital citizenship, but this should also be a routinely integrated discussion with all students throughout the school year even if students are not using the chromebooks. We have iPads and computer use all the way down to our preschoolers. Some resources for this are below, and please share if you find other resources that you would recommend.

Remember 'more than 1.' Email should have the parent email if possible. Great way to also include and engage families in their child's educational learning.
