1. Technology Usage
At the conclusion of the school year, users will be removed from each platform to make room for incoming students in the fall.

4. CHROMEbook/Google log-in
Username = as (first and last initial with student number) – just like in the computer lab!
Password is the same as in the computer lab!

5. Cel.ly
Cel.ly can be found as an app as well as online through your personal computer.
The format is set up by the instructor; in which case I have set it up to act as a “texting chat room”. It is only for those that have been given the password to log in and create their profile.
This will cause A LOT of messages to happen but the dialog is only to be science class related.
Members who fail to comply with the rules will be kicked out of the “cell”.
This is designed for students.

6. Cel.ly – 6th grade class 1.) Text @FRANtasticScience to 23559

IF there is an error message, make sure you put “frantastic” and not “fantastic” (make sure you have the r )

8. Remind101 Remindme101 is a web based texting option.
Communication can happen only one way (meaning, you can’t text back for a response).
This is primarily used for quick updates/reminders.
Parents are encouraged to join THIS group as it doesn’t have a great amount of messages.
