Post #6: Equipment Care, New AV Installations, Printing,



Wishing you a wonderful vacation and a very Happy New Year!

Equipment Care: When we return in January, I often find that students need reminders about routines & caring for our school equipment is one of them. While my hope is that they care for all equipment both at home and at school, I find that home care is often different than school care.


Please take a few minutes to remind students to:
  • When making transitions, walk with closed Chromebooks.
  • Carry equipment with 2 hands
  • Carefully return equipment to their appropriate slot in your charging carts.
  • Carefully plug the equipment in for charging
  • No eating or drinking while using equipment
Thank you for helping to foster positive device care in your classrooms!


New AV Installations: I'm excited for our next round of Interactive Flat Panel (IFP) installations - Laura, Deborah, Fiona, Kori, and Jaclyn! They will happen over the December break starting on Monday, December 23rd!!


Printing: A few 5th graders created signs for each printer. After vacation, each printer will be clearly labeled with its printer name. Our hope is that this will facilitate the collecting of printouts from the appropriate printers.


Printing from Chromebooks: Over vacation, Joe and Ruth are streamlining the printing process from Chromebooks. In order to facilitate this process, please have all students RESTART their Chromebooks on Monday, January 6th when we return from vacation.
