Returning Students
- Sign in to your Google account. If you don't have one, sign up for one. We will be using Google Docs often this year.
- Open the Important Information and Expectations document. Copy it to your Google Drive. (File> Make a Copy). Read it over with your parent or guardian. Let me know if you have any questions or comments. (There are very few changes from last year.) If you agree to it, print the last page and bring it signed to our meeting.
- Open the Internet Use Agreement Document. (I know that it is for 2012/13, I will update if and when there are changes.) Copy it to your Google Drive. (File> Make a Copy). Read it over with your parent or guardian. If you agree to the terms, print out the last page and bring it signed to our meeting.
- Organize your Google Drive. Make folders for your school papers. Put the docs you just copied into the folder. Spend some time in your drive figuring out how to create documents and share them. Make a "test" document and share it with me.
- Open your assignment sheet. Look it over. Is it clear? Do you have any questions? Can you see what you need to do and when you need to have it done by? Bookmark it so you will have it handy. Email me with any questions.
- Sign into Launchpad. Take a look at your classes and your assignments. Make sure you can access everything and let me know if you have any questions.
- If you have ALEKS math, sign into ALEKS. Take your initial assessment. (Your log-in info is on your assignment sheet.)
- If you have PE, open your PE log. Begin doing 50 minutes of physical activity today and log it.
- If you have a directed project, start thinking about what you want to accomplish and how you will show that you have accomplished it. Look on Amazon for materials you might need. Remember, you have $75 (with shipping & tax) to spend.
Following days:
- Follow your assignment sheet. Make sure you see what is due for our meeting. Plan to complete all work that will be due. Contact me if you have any questions.
- Make sure to bring the Information and Expectations, and Internet Use Agreement signature pages to our first meeting.
