October Workshop: Helping with iPads at Home   
Join us on Tuesday, October 20 for an opportunity to learn basic troubleshooting and get an introduction to the apps your child is using most often in the classroom. Participants will learn more about how students access and update apps on their iPads. Quick problem solving tips that will help troubleshoot small issues at home will be shared. We will also let you explore the Schoology, Notability, Class Dojo, and MyHomework apps that students use daily. If you come to the evening session, feel free to bring your child's iPad along with you! Time for questions and answers will be provided at the end of the workshop.
