There will be much information shared today on this page; it'll be in four main sections: digital citizenship reminders, google classroom login codes, PE from Coach Forbes, communication/connection.
1. Digital Citizenship as posted yesterday from Mr. Hewitt:
Before we begin our soft opening next week it is imperative that we go over the rules of digital citizenship. Simply put, digital citizenship consists of awareness regarding the norms and rules that govern online behavior, and a cautious approach to the inherent dangers of the internet and technology use overall.
We have had extensive lessons in our computer time about digital citizenship. I would encourage students and parents tonight to read the following article and have another discussion about being safe on the internet and acting appropriately. I believe such a discussion is vitally important seeing the amount of technology use required in our "distance learning" period this year.
Here is the article:

2. Google Classroom codes:
You need to sign into the google classrooms of the same teachers that you normally have. So, if you have Pimenta for language arts, Hewitt for math, and Cannon for science & history, then you'd need to sign into all three. If you only have Cannon and Pimenta, only sign into those two.
Directions: Log onto google account. Go to the waffle. Click Classroom. Then click "+" sign in upper right corner. Then you can use these codes:
Mrs. Cannon's google classroom login code: pwt7m3i
Mrs. Pimenta's google classroom login code: zqx6yqc
Mr. Hewitt's google classroom login code: afatf6u
Contact me, Mrs. Cannon, at mcannon@gusd.net, if you cannot get in.
3. PE information:
Remote Learning - Physical Education Information
Greetings students and parents,
I hope all are well, active, and spending time with family. For the next few weeks, we will be offering suggestions for physical education enrichment activities and practice. The weekly lesson will be sent out by your classroom teacher. Please look out for these attachments being sent to your inbox.
In addition to these attachments, students will also be able to visit my Google Classroom (Coach Forbes PE) for additional worksheets, workouts, and activities. The codes for your PE Google Classrooms are as follows:
Google Classroom Codes:

If you will not have constant internet access, you may view/download the weekly schedule that will be emailed to you and participate in the activities that are listed. If you will have access to the internet, you can join my Google classroom and check in each day to complete the activities, check out the links, and compete with your classmates to see which classes will reach their “active goals.”
The Google classroom for your PE classes will start on March 30th. All of the activities that will be posted are able to be done in and around your house during the remote learning period. If any portion of the workout seems too difficult, or if you feel too tired to continue, please take a time-out and continue when you feel ready. Additionally, if the workout seems easy, please feel free to add more exercises or repetitions to your routine.
I am looking forward to seeing your progress for the next few weeks. Once the page is set up, you will be able to report your “active minutes” and let me know how you did!
In the meantime, I would like to encourage you to continue the Coach Forbes Rule on daily fitness development: Push-ups and Sit-ups, morning and night…4-5 days per week! (Example: 5 push-ups, 10 sit-ups each morning and night)
Blessings,
Coach Forbes

3. Communication/Connection:
The current expectation is that the blog, your email, and the google classroom are checked daily.
Additionally, the district encourages you to sign up for their app to be connected with the most up to date information. Our school has several social media connections as well, check out the links below:
