Equipment

Katy ISD schools,

Please make reservations for your campus video conference equipment and a document camera.

 

If your video conference cart will be moved for this event...there are 3 easy steps to set up:

1.  Plug in network cable.  Best bet is to unplug a working phone or computer so you get a "hot" jack.

2.  Plug in electricity.

3.  Turn on projector

 

 

Snow Partners,

Please begin planning what your student can share about living in “a place with lots of snow”.

The best sessions have been very informal….kids talking to kids….don’t worry about a formal, polished presentation.

We LOVE to see a student or two dress in their complete snow gear – snow pants, coat, gloves, boots, scarf, hat, etc.

If you have time to take pictures and/or video of “snow stuff” to share that would be great!  Maybe at recess. – better yet, let your students use the camera to capture their ideas.

If you can connect a computer to your video conference equipment to share the pictures/video that would be great.
