I need help fellow technology savvy teachers... being alone with not much support from my employer. I am a deaf ed teacher. We are teaching online. I need help with some great direct instructions on how to make a google Bitmoji classroom and any help how to organize and make a clear google classroom so it’s not so confusing to my students. I know the basics but I need more help with things only you get taught from someone who knows or learned tricks to the program or is more savvy...

Alice Keeler, pocket full of primary, and EZ EdTech all have great tutorials. Pocket full of primary has excellent video on setting up google classroom- most important tip: hide notifications.
For students to be able to see both you and the book you can use google classroom extension called dualless. It splits your screen for you. Good luck!

After 18 years, I lost my art room to a classroom this year in order to spread out kids due to Covit19. They said we can’t hand out papers.. kinda thinking art is remote for all. I will do lessons on google classroom with live lesson to classrooms and home. I was told special area teachers may be “repurposed”. We will be used like a TA. One class will be spread out two rooms.Aday teacher in one room, I help in other room. B day teachers switch 😳😷☹️.. I know I’m lucky to have a job but.

Drop your classroom management ideas here. For my school it sure is nice to have a principal who supports a no phone policy.
