Good evening and Happy Sunday! I am so proud to say that almost all of our students have successfully logged into their Google Classroom accounts. As I was scanning the accounts today, I added invites for many of you to some subjects that you were missing. Please be sure to accept these invites so you don’t miss out on important work that your teachers are providing.
Beginning tomorrow, Monday, March 23, 2020 our students will all be utilizing Google Classroom as a platform for Remote Learning. Our teachers and paraprofessionals have been working hard to plan engaging lessons to continue to help their students move forward academically. We ask that everyone logs on at some point during the day and completes some of the assignments. I know many of you parents are still working… this makes things more challenging. Please have your child log on, whether it’s in the morning, during the day, or in the evening. Completed assignments and/or messages posted to the stream will be one way we can track student attendance in this virtual world.
If you are using a school computer, you must log on to the computer with the administrator credentials to connect to your home wifi. The credentials are as follows:
If you have a yellow and black lenovo laptop from the school, the Administrative login name is nycdoe
The password is D1IT@D0e
If you have a MacBook from the school, the Administrative login name is nycdoe
The password is SDE4t3am
I ask that you continue to check this regularly for school updates. I will update the site as often as possible as new information comes to me.
In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, I am always available and here to work with you. Please email me your question or concern at HLorenz@schools.nyc.gov along with your child's name and a telephone number. I will call you back as soon as possible.
As we embark on this new way of teaching and learning I would like to leave you with a quote
from our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln:
“I do the very best I know how, the very best I can, and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.”
This is a new way of teaching and learning for all of us. I ask for your continued patience and support as we navigate these unchartered waters. Again, we are all trying to do our best.
I wish all of our students, their families, and their friends good health in the coming times and always.

PS/MS 47 will be using Google Classroom as our platform for Remote Learning. Most students in Grades 4-8 already have their Google login credentials (username@psms47q.com and password).
School personnel will be reaching out to you if your child is in a lower grade. If you do not hear from any of us with this information by 12pm on Sunday afternoon (3/22/2020), please email me at hlorenz@schools.nyc.gov. Please include your child's name and class along with a contact telephone number. I will get back to you on Sunday.
Our remote learning will look different based on the grade level, content area, and/or specific lesson. Many teachers will be utilizing a combination of the following:
-Posting recordings of the teacher teaching a lesson
-Posting a written lesson
-Posting a link to a video
-Posting a Google Meet code where the students and teachers can meet for a video conference
Most lessons will have an assignment/activity/assessment/task attached.
Please read the directions carefully --- some of these might require the student to respond within the Google Classroom Stream (similar to a Facebook Wall), while others might require the student to upload a file and submit it.
Between now and Monday I will post some instructions so parents and students will have a better understanding of how to perform some basic tasks with this platform.
***If you want to pick up some materials that the teachers packaged for the students as well as the student's report card, please do so tomorrow Thursday 3/19/2020 between 9am and 1pm.
***If you need a laptop, please be sure to call the school. We have laptops available to loan to you. These laptops must be picked up by tomorrow Thursday 3/19/2020 between 9am and 1pm
***If your child has medication with Nurse Glynn, please come to the school tomorrow Thursday 3/19/2020 between 9am and 1pm so we can give it back to you. (An adult must come to sign for the medicine)
Again, I thank you for your patience during this trying time. We all share the goal of helping our students.
I wish all of our students, their families, and their friends good health today and always.
