We are completing the first full week of this new way to do school.
So many of you have been doing a terrific job navigating the Google Classroom.
Those of you who have not tried it yet, I hope you find it easy.
If at any time you are in need of assistance, contact me.
On Tuesday, Doug from our Mystery Science series is doing a live episode!
(We have been watching Doug all school year.)
Join live: April 7th at 1 pm Eastern at mysteryscience.com/live.
After viewing this 20 minute show, if you would like to, we can meet during 'Office Hours'.
You can use this link meet.google.com/mrj-pogk-uvs or go to the NSE Classroom info page and click on Office Hours for Mrs. Bisco.
If you are doing Online Learning, look for new activities at the end of the week. Online will be one week at a time.
Paper Packets will be distributed April 17 and April 20. Packets will be every 2 weeks.
I hope you have a stressless week!

Welcome to Online Learning
Hey All!
I know that a few of you have already logged on and got started with some of our online school work. Great!
For those of you who may not remember how to log on...Go to the North Schuylkill website, find classlink. Once there, sign in with your ID # and the password nse##### (nse and ID# together).
Then if it asks you to sign into the gapps account, use the same username and password.
You should find our classroom.
Good Luck and if anyone needs any help. Please let me know.
You may complete these using a plain sheet of paper and pencil and copy the work from the screen or if you want to, some of the activities can be printed. Printing is not necessary. Do whatever is most comfortable for you. :)
