Covid 19: Shelter at Home Computer Lessons
Dear Parents,
To help your kids pass the time at home in a meaningful way, we wanted to encourage them to continue where they left off in their Technology Class.
We started this year with learning Javascript at Khan Academy. To login to Khan Academy, your child will need to use their Gmail account that we created for them at the beginning of the year.
Hopefully, your child will remember their email address and password. We used the following paradigm:
email: first name + last name + [email protected]
password: oneontarm#
For example, a student named Elijah Choi in Room 7 would be:
email: [email protected]
password: oneontarm7
If you forget the email, it’s okay. You can create a new one yourself.
Once you are able to login or create a new email for your child, use that Gmail account to login to Khan Academy.
You can login with any gmail and have your child go through the lessons.

More recently, we switched to code.org.

Click the link above and choose the appropriate grade level of your child and they can follow along. So far, we did the following Hour of Code tutorials: Flappy Code, Minecraft Aquatic, Star Wars. You can read more about it here.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email [email protected].
Also, we would highly encourage typing practice so that your child is able to type with all 10 fingers. Your child can practice here.

All the best,

Donations to the Philippines
Dear Oneonta Families,
Thank you very much for your generosity and for your kindness. The Taal volcano disrupted many lives and we appreciate that you took the time to help so many families in these communities.
Families are gradually returning to their homes and now have to deal with the clean up effort and start rebuilding their lives. Thank you for your donations that went a long way to help them while they were displaced.
Sincerely,
Oneonta Staff

Taal Volcano Donations
The Taal volcano that erupted on January 12th in the Philippines has devastated the lives of thousands of people living in cities close to the volcano.
Approximately 271,000 have been displaced and many have been evacuated to other cities, including Lipa and Batangas Cities where Ms Carol’s sister, Emylou Magbanua, has been actively involved by purchasing and packing relief goods and handing it out to families.
We have many students & teachers at Oneonta who have family members residing in the Philippines and we would like to help by asking for donations from our Oneonta families.
Please see attachment below for more information.
