Overview of April 15th Google Meet


During Room 5's April 15th Google Meet we spoke about…

  • Google Meet Etiquette- this is just like a lesson in the classroom, it is expected that you are demonstrating respect for the speaker (teacher & peers) at all times. The side chat is for typing in a question mark to notify Mrs. Morden that you have a question & would like to speak- just like raising your hand in a lesson.

  • How to navigate Google Classroom-
    • Overview for the Week Material (list of jobs just like in our classroom, responsible work choices, weekly work journal)
    • Assignments (how to input work directly into the assignments (in a textbox), how to input photos of work, how to input additional documents when submitting an assignment)
    • Flipgrid & Question poll will be other tools Mrs Morden uses for student interaction and student voice

  • Submitting Work- solely on Google Classroom
  • Quality of Work- In your assignments, you will see Success Criteria and Self Assessments. Mrs. Morden will respond to your assignment with feedback in the comment section and may 'RETURN' the work to you to make changes, you can then resubmit.
  • Other topics that came up:
    • Raz-Kids- If you cannot log in or see that you are on the wrong reading level, please contact Mrs. Morden for help
    • Prodigy- This is another online gaming website that can be used to practice math skills. Mrs. Morden will not be creating a class account at this time.

It was so great to see everyone's smiling faces! I truly have missed each and every one of you, and can't wait until we can be together again! 

Let me know if you have any individual questions.

On Friday, I will be sending parents a GOOGLE FORM to survey how you as a family are feeling after two weeks of Google Classroom instruction. I would appreciate the feedback as I understand, as a parent myself, the realities of this shift in routine. 

All the best,
Mrs. Morden
