4. Virtual Yoga Club with Mrs. Lancia
Students and families are invited to join Mrs. Lancia this May 14th at 4:30 for a half hour
Yoga Club meeting on Google Meet! We will aim to meet every Thursday at this time.
● Know that other students and their families will be able to see/hear your child (unless
you turn off the video/mic options). Your child will also be able to see/hear other
students.
● Students are expected to behave appropriately (as they would be expected to behave at
school). Inappropriate behaviour will not be tolerated.
● Prior to Thursday, families are encouraged to explore the Google Meet function.
Students must be signed in to their student Google account. Users can then click on
the “Google Apps” button (at the top right hand corner of the screen - the nine grey
squares). You’ll then see “Meet” appear in the options presented, which you’ll select
next. Students will be then prompted to join or start a meeting. You can join our meeting
by entering our meeting code: uko-vztq-skh
● I will have my e-mail (clancia@scdsb.on.ca) open, so please e-mail me if you are having
a hard time logging in and I will do my best to help. You’ve got this!
