Hello!

I'm in Pittsburgh today at a statewide teacher conference, so virtual Steigerwalt will be teaching instead. Here's what you'll need to be successful today:
 * pencil
 * assignment book
 * chrome book
 * headphones (you can go to your locker to get yours if you need to, or you can borrow a set of mine)
 * a mouse (if you'd like one)
 * your quia login and password
 * your "Scrooge is Really. . . " rough draft
 * your school Google log in and password

Once you have gathered those things, proceed to Step 1 below.

Step 1: Make sure you have your assignment book and a pencil ready, and plug in the headphones. Then, watch this video to see what tonight's homework is.

Step 2: Go to quia and log in to take your vocabulary test, then come back here for Step 3.

Remember! You will need to log in, then __**click the link next to class web page**__, then look for the quiz, which is called "7/___ Sadlier Oxford Level B Unit 7" You will need to log in to the quiz itself. You have one try, so make sure you click carefully!

If you run into any issues with logging in, locking yourself out, or anything else like that, ask the substitute to help you - he or she should call Mrs. Reitnauer or Mrs. Serina to take care of it.

Step 3: If you got a 90% or higher on your test, great work! You can get a sticker from the tray near my desk. The puffy winter stickers are not scratch and sniff, but the flat ones are.

Step 4: If you still need to finish typing your "Scrooge is Really. . . " essay into your google drive, please do that now.

Remember! You need to log into your SCHOOL Google account. To do that, log in to Clever using your ID@parklandsd.org and your main computer password. Scroll down and click on the Google G. Once you have signed in, you'll see your initial in a circle in the right hand corner, and a waffle menu next to it. (it looks like nine little gray boxes in a square).

Click the waffle menu, then choose your Drive (it's the triangle that sort of looks like the recycling symbol). On the left side, click "Shared With Me" In your drive, you will see a document titled with your last name and first name, then Scrooge is Really. You'll know it's the right one because there is a picture of Scrooge on it.

You do not need to worry about saving or sharing your document - that is done automatically. As a reminder, this essay is due no later than Monday at 3:00 PM.

Step 5: If you've been super diligent and finished everything above and there is still time left in class, you can work on any of the following:
 * Unit 8 vocab book work
 * read an ARP book/take an ARP test
 * look for/print out pictures of Christmas Carol characters for your foldable
 * Work on Study Island Take 3
 * GHP students - work on your Summary Draft Sheet

If you run into trouble with anything (other than your quia test), click the button below and fill out the form. If I can fix it from Pittsburgh, I will!
