Zoom Storytime for Young Children: SHS sophomores Will Reed and Sam Siegel are offering a "Storytime" group on Zoom every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, at 4 PM when they read to young kids for around 30 minutes. The group is now up to around 25 families (some have multiple kids). For Reed and Siegel it as a fun way to give back to the community and get young kids involved. It also gives the parents a break.
More kids are welcome! To join them, click on the following link on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 4 PM: https://zoom.us/j/646743551

Before attending an online class using Zoom, students should familiarize themselves with the audio and video settings on the computer, laptop, or mobile device that they intend to use for class. The Zoom Help Center offers a number of tutorials designed to introduce you to that app, including this informative video about how to join a Zoom meeting as a participant.
For this week's free edutainment, please enjoy an author visit with Dani Shapiro from June 11, 2019 and Tales from the 'Dale and Beyond from March 14, 2019, two of our special events that had been recorded, thanks to the A/V department of the Scarsdale School District.
