We will start class at 10AM on the day you are scheduled for science. Please plan to log-in starting at 9:45AM so we can start class on time.
Once logged into Zoom, you will be able to see my website with the Do Now visible. Please prepare your response to the Do Now as you arrive and I am taking attendance.
You should be added to the Google Classroom for your cohort. There you will find a link to the lesson for the week (this page) and any work that will be graded.
If you are not able to attend the Zoom session, you may still complete this work at a later time by going to the google classroom, finding the link to this page, and following the directions there.
