A Little Social Media Fun

What a miserable weekend of weather!!  I saw some snowflakes flying around on Saturday.  I thought it was an April Fool's joke, but it was not.  You weren't even born yet the last time we had an April Fool's Day blizzard.  It was crazy!!!  Check it out:  20 Years Later:  Remembering the April Fool's Day Blizzard. I am so glad history did not repeat itself this past weekend.

This week you will take a break from the last two units we have been working on and have a little bit of social media fun.  During class one you will be working on some Mad Lib like emoji stories.  Have you seen the 2017 release of new emojis?  Take a look at All 69 New Emojis for 2017.  Once you have finished this video, please go to Google Classroom.  I have left a new assignment there for you.  Once you have read the assignment you will work "old school" with paper, scissors,  and glue sticks.
Good luck and have fun with this Emoji Lesson.

Please continue reviewing your Blogging and Commenting Study Guides.  You will have this assessment during class two this week.  If you missed tech last week be sure to get a copy of the study guide and answers from Ms. Shepard.

During class two you will take your Blogging and Commenting Assessment.  You will find a link to this assessment in an announcement in Google Classroom.  I have discovered some students have been using the chat component of Google Classroom to cheat on assessments.  This is very disappointing.  I have disabled this feature in classroom.  I would expect you to all be on your best honor when taking assessments.
Once you have finished and submitted this assessment, you will read quietly at your work station.

Have a great week!
