Hello! Here's what we're up to today:

Face to Face

  • First thing's first: take out your phones / agendas, and make sure you keep the blog address: www.kitsmclean.blogspot.com. It will be used a lot.
  • Introductions
    • Who am I?
    • Who are you?
      • Write your name in big block letters
      • Draw something you find interesting or is important to you
      • I'll ask each of you:
        • What name would you like to go by?
        • What classes are you coming from, and what's your other class?
        • What would you like to tell me about yourself?
      • Your task is to ask me a question about myself that is (a) as intriguing a question as possible while (b) remaining respectful.
  • Tour of the blog, the assignment pagethe Daybook, and of the Teams Channel

        • Your schedule next week looks like this:
          • Monday/Wednesday - class in 133 in Flex Time
