Preparing for a Zoom class
If you've never joined a Zoom class before it's a good idea to download Zoom in advance. Go to
Zoom.us and follow the prompts.
1. Plan your set-up. For lots of classes it's important for the instructor to be able to see what
    you are doing. Make sure your set-up can accommodate this.
2. Learn how to un-mute yourself for those times when there is an open discussion.
3. Learn how to switch from speaker to gallery view in order to see all your fellow participants.
4. Zoom ID link will be sent to you by email before the start of class.

                    Bring the popular gameshow to life in your very own living room
                    while having a blast playing online with friends! This game involves
                    a series of downright ridiculous challenges that each need to be
                    completed in under one minute to score. GNAG’s game show hosts

                    neighbourhood families for mini-challenge supremacy! Bonus points
                    for best team costumes!

                    work together to come up with the best answers to some rather
                    goofy questions.
