Google Meet Links Updated
August 20, 2020
Dear Hastings Families,
Over the last few months, during Superintendent’s Chats, surveys, and the Home Help Hour, we learned that some parents wanted opportunities to learn more about Google Classroom and some of the G-Suite applications. We are pleased to offer three workshops for parents which will be conducted by Ms. Shannon Mulholland, a Teacher at Farragut Middle School. Ms. Mulholland is an incredibly talented educator who I am grateful to for conducting these workshops. The Google Meet link is provided with the workshop descriptions below.
Monday - 8/24 - 8:30-9:30 am
Navigating Google Classroom
Learn the basics of Google Classroom. Help your child navigate Google Classroom as you learn to turn in assignments, utilize the to-do list, and navigate the stream and classwork tab.
***If you would like to do this as I teach, you will need access to your child's Google Classroom account, if not you can follow along as I share my screen.
Tuesday - 8/25 - 8:30-9:30 am
Attaching pictures and assignments to Google Classroom Assignments
Often there are opportunities for students to work off of the computer but students will need to show their work through Google Classroom. This workshop will help parents navigate this process so they can assist their child in adding to an assignment and attaching a picture/scan of their work.

Wednesday - 8/26 - 8:30 - 9:30 am
Utilizing Google Calendar, Google Docs, Drawings, and Google Slides.
Learn how to navigate Google Calendar and how to tell when a live session will meet. You will also learn some features of Google Docs, and how your child can transfer a Google Drawing to a Google Slide.
If you have questions about Google Classroom or the G-Suite during the course of the school year or would like additional parent learning opportunities, please reach out to the following administrators: Principal Lou Adipietro, Hastings High School; Assistant Principal Kevin Hanlon, Farragut Middle School; and Assistant Principal John DeKams, Hillside Elementary School.
Sincerely,
Valerie Henning-Piedmonte
