Day two of virtual school, better than before

Today was much better, although really no school apps got used, it was mostly some MS Teams meetings. I did discover how disorganized things were though as there were three separate places to go to get information for two classes.

Principal had an email with a PDF that had a link to the morning announcements Teams meeting. This required jumping through some hoops to get the announcement on one computer (Teams links aren’t short, and when they’re in a PDF in an email that doesn’t tell you that this is the Teams link, man…)

My kindergartner’s teacher sent out meeting invites for her class. These appeared on my work email and were among the easiest to deal with.

Bloomz was used for the invites for my second grader.

But you know what, they’ll get it together. It’s chaos week, but no IT fails today.
