Welcome Back to School! August 30 - Sept 3

 Hi all, 

Mr. Garcia here.  



This week will be about setting up & getting to know our Google information system and tuning up your Chromebooks.  Lots to learn about all the tools you have at your fingertips.  

We'll also be setting up or updating your accounts for software applications you will be using this year.

Class Routines: When you come into class, take a few minutes to
  1. Find your seat
  2. Power up your computer
  3. Adjust your work area to be comfortable.  That can also include finding a chair that is right for you.
  4. READ THE CLASS BLOG - here is where you will find your daily & weekly tasks
  5. Follow the directions
On Monday: we'll put connect and check all of the Acer Desktop computers.  We'll also tie up the wiring so it does not become a mess.  We'll also talk about student privacy on a school network and what you can do while using a school device.
