[CASL-L] Google Virtual Field Trips

[KALUZYNSKI SARA]

FYI.  We are scheduled for next Friday.

I passed word on to my staff on Oct 1.  Apparently 6 of them signed up and put me down as their leader.  I was contacted by Google on Tuesday, Oct 13 to pick a day by today (Oct 15) for next week!  I had to put together a complete and detailed schedule in order to have the date confirmed.  It was pretty stressful but we are scheduled. Crossing my fingers it goes okay.

We signed up and were contacted last week and they were supposed to come today.

We were thrilled until they told us we had to have 18 classrooms.

We had 10.

Also, kids under age 7 cannot participate.

Awesome idea, but I wish they had made those things more clear from the beginning.

Good luck!

We signed up as well and several attempts were made to confirm.
We have not heard yet from Google.

I signed up also, and it looked like there were days set up specifically for Waterbury, but I never heard back from anyone...
