Hi folks in lockdown library land!
I've been spinning my wheels trying to find audience-friendly
videos/visuals for busy families. Preferably, short, sweet, up to date and
visually succinct. Topics: logging in, Google Classroom, basics of Docs...
Am I dreaming? Oh, and in Spanish if not other languages? Am I really
dreaming?!  LOL. I think we also need resources on using Meet if it's being
used live (no naked siblings in the background, how to turn off the mic,
etc).
Students of all grades were able to borrow Chromebooks but only HS is
accustomed to it.

Can anyone share? My district wants a website for parents and one for
students. Before I spend eons creating my own (I'm way too self-critical
and not at all in the mindset of little kids anymore).
I'm really struggling. It was a nice distraction for a while but now I'm
really stressed about it!

*Here's the best of what I found so far: *
Google docs for kids.

Google Classroom for parents (kinda long but good):

Student View of Classroom (meant for teachers but some parents might have
interest/patience): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxlBc1q8CfM

About Chromebooks (only our HS was take hpme 1:1 previously):

Safety: CommonSense Media and Be Internet awesome:

elementary for years so this isn't on my front burner.

Thank you so much if you can help. And if not, I hope these links help you!!
