Distance Learning: Tech Recs Tutorial Videos
If you were able to attend our Tech Rec meeting, you do not need to watch these videos. They are in-depth explanations on how to play if you missed our live meeting :)
This week's Tech Rec video is a little long because it recaps how to get to the Tech Website, how to find the Tech Rec videos, and how to access this week's activities! Here are helpful timestamps to navigate the video:

Bash the Trash Live
April 22, 2PM Central Time "Celebrate the Earth! Follow this live workshop where you can learn how to make your own musical instruments out of recyclable and other discarded materials around your house. Then, join in a multi-media, multi-player performance where you can be part of the orchestra playing for this celebration of Earth.
Note: You don’t need to have materials in order to participate–there’ll be plenty to do. Be sure that everything that you collect is clean, safe, and disinfected. And always check with an adult first!" |
