So the next real-time video conference lesson is in our class time at 13.00 on Tuesday 4 May. You have to go to Google Meet in your Google options, clicking on the square icon with 9 points on the top right of the homepage for your institutional mail. The group will be called: 'lettorato2young' but I'll put the link on your Classroom Stream at 12.45.
You need to deactivate your microphone at least at the start, otherwise, it will be difficult to hear. Then I'll ask someone to speak and they have to activate the microphone. You can write to me and the other students in Chat at the top on the right.
Have your book and any other materials you need ready.
