Below is a video on Zoom.  But, the short version of what it isays:
  • We will have a new Zoom link EVERY day for security reasons.  Please check your email nightly for the new Link.
  • We have a Zoom monitor on at all times allowing people to enter the meeting and keeping an eye on things.
  • Please have your child's name as the screen name so our monitors know where to place them in breakout rooms.  Keep the name throughout the day.
  • Private chat in Zoom is to communicate with counselors and staff only.
  • We ask that you don't use virtual backgrounds (too distracting).

Device recommendations

Here's a video from the Geek in the Garden on device recommendations for what to use while 'zooming'.

Here's the TL/DR version.

1 - Try to use a PC or Mac with a webcam as your primary device for zooming.  
2 - We've seen some problems with Chromebooks and iPads on Zoom.  If you use one of these, be sure it is a newer one with better specs.
3 - TWO DEVICES.  When working on Zoom with the Garden, you'll use two devices - your primary device for Zoom, and a smartphone to play audio.  
4 - Think about getting a bluetooth headset or bluetooth earbuds to use during Zoom to keep outside noises out and allow the most mobility.

Lastly - here's an Amazon list with some BlueTooth earbuds and speakers I recommend.
