click on the link above on Tuesday at 11.00 and we can have a virtual online lesson. Just to see how you're getting on and what you could be doing to keep things tickin' over.
I'm using your school email addresses - and you should do so as well.
Please let me know that you've seen this.
It would be good if you could join the meeting with your video and audio enabled.
SEE YOU ON TUESDAY FROM 11.00 - DON'T WORRY IF IT TAKES A WHILE TO GET SET UP.
I THINK ZOOM IS MORE USER FRIENDLY THAN MICROSOFT TEAMS.
