11/12/10 Newsletter

Technology Hiccups

To bring together all we've learned about the Great Lakes Ecosystem, students have started an online  S.S. project.  Thanks to our students for their patience.  My intent was to have 2 class periods this week  creating online posters with Glogster.com.  In reality - our internet connection was up and down and not a lot got started at school.  Students have worked through the research for the project and are now designing a layout and plugging in their facts.  The actual creation of the poster is very simple.  How much time a student spends in design and "playing" with the features can vary.  Our goal is to have projects done by Tuesday, with one more period spent in the computer lab on Monday.  (For 6G that is Lab on Tues. due date: Wed.)  We may push back that date if needed.  I will be excited to share the designs the students are creating!

Advent Reminder: Music Auditions

We are well on our way to learning songs and parts for our Advent services on Dec. 1.  Just a reminder for students who are interested in playing preservice or offering music:  Have your selections practiced for auditions on Tuesday, Nov. 23.
