Housekeeping:

We may have made a breakthrough with the Google Read and Write/PDF reader today (thanks to Rachel and Rumaisa).  Watch the video here if you are having difficulty writing or typing on a PDF.  

 We get to start Google Meet tomorrow - cameras off.  I will schedule a meeting on google classroom, and you just have to click on the link to join.  Here are the rules: 
Rules for a Google Meet
⭐ Cameras are always off. ALWAYS.
⭐ Audio is also off. There will be times to talk, but with potentially 35 kids on at one time, I will be giving directions as to when to use audio.
⭐ When using the chat feature (in the sidebar) be respectful:  Use kind, polite words and ideas only
⭐Be Responsible:  Ask yourself, “Is this an appropriate thing to write for all students and families to see?”

⭐ Be Safe:  Never include personal information

KUDOS: To Mehrshad for being the first to solve the initial brain tickler math problem.  Kudos also goes to Rumaisa for being the first to solve today's brain tickler - and for helping out a couple of other kids!

Housekeeping : Man, I miss you guys!  Tomorrow, I will be sending a message to all parents via EDSBY which will include my office hours, how I will be teaching, and means of communicating with me.  Parents: through repeated efforts, I (with the help of some parents) discovered that when I send a group message via EDSBY, it's a one-way street; there is no way for parents to respond (kind of like a blog post).  As such, I will save Board-related messages for EDSBY, and daily work will be posted here on the blog.  You can always email me at marc.lemoine@yrdsb.ca any questions, and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.   KUDOS:  To everyone who respects social distancing QOTD:  "This should be over by March Break..." GOOD NEWS VIEWS: People around the world are taking a moment in the evening to cheer on our front line health care workers.  Video English: -  Math: -  Geography : -  French : -   -  Science : -  Heal
