I spend most of my extra time on parent questions and small groups and text messages/emails from parents until I go to bed.

Here is the information from Selina Bryne:    I wanted to share some information regarding SAVVAS Realize.  I know there were some questions regarding assigning content in Realize.  Here is a link to a SAVVAS Realize training site.  There you will find videos, PDFs, etc. on how to navigate and use Realize.  I have also attached some of the PDFs I thought would be useful for you to use now.  If you have any additional questions, please let me know.  Remember that with Schoology, you can put a link in your course, but it will take them to outside Schoology (in a new tab) to complete anything in Realize.  You will have to teach your students how to navigate and complete any assignments you want them to complete.
