Day 1 of new material

 Today was the first day where we communicated new material, and the first day where grades count.

The most important issue I have noticed today is attendance and timing, in particular sticking with the day's schedule.  Please, if at all possible, do not treat this like you are doing an assignment on vacation.  Don't sleep in - submit work on a timely schedule in order.  I have noticed many people that aren't turning in any assignments or turning them in at an hour where it seems like they woke up at 10am.  If you woke up late or can't do the day's work at the times scheduled, please let me know.

Second issue is a silly one, but one that must be addressed.  Please have your child put their actual name as a sign in for the Zoom meetings as opposed to a crazy screen name.  I can't tell who is who and will have to exit you from the session.

Thank you for everything.  It was a hard day of navigating Google Classrooms, Zoom meetings, internet lag, technical glitches, and the various expectations of type A teachers (well not me, but you know what I mean)...

Hang in there.  This was another first day and I guarantee you the rest of the week will be much better.
