Marching On

The weeks keep "Marching" on.  It's hard to believe April is knocking on our door.  I feel like we just got back from our winter break.  Have you noticed all the flowers starting to pop up?   Before we know it flip flops will be flopping down the halls of BIS.  Did you do anything exciting this weekend?

During class one this week you will finalize and correct your Blogging and Commenting Study Guides. You will view a slide presentation with the correct answers to you will be able to make corrections on your own.  This presentation should be very helpful.  The real work is up to you!!  You need to take your study guide home and actually STUDY!!

During class two this week you will take your assessment.  I will share the link to this assessment in Google Classroom.  In addition I will have you share link to your blog with me.  I share a Google Form for this task.

Have a great week!!

Just a Little Bit of Craziness Today.....

Hello My Teen Techies,
    I will not be with you for class today as something has come up unexpectedly.  You will be having an assessment on commenting next week.  Please see the schedule at the bottom of this blog post for your testing date.  You should have received an email from me via Google Classroom letting you know to expect this assessment.
   You will be printing your "Study Guide" during this class.  Please listen carefully to your substitute as he/she will be reviewing the answers with you.  You will be using the handout I have placed next to your workstations to be successful today.  You will start off with Step #1 of this handout as soon as you have finished  reading this blog post.
   Reviewing the BPS Blogging and Commenting Guidelines and your printed document should have you more than prepared for this assessment. I will be sure to leave some time for a quick review at the end of our class one next week to answer any lingering questions you may still have.
   Please do a great job and make me proud!
Have a great weekend,
Mrs. White :0)

Impressed!!

WOW!!!!!  I am so impressed by the work my students are doing on their glogs.  I wasn’t too sure when I created this lesson, but now I feel it was a great way to have students review for their up and coming quiz.  I can see what students have taken from the first few lessons this year.  It has also been an opportunity for me to review with some students.  I could see who needed some reviewing based on the amount of information on their glogs.  We are just about ready to have our “showing” of glogs to classmates.  I know looking at others’ glogs will be a great review for students.  This first “project” has me thinking my students will go to new levels this year and lucky me- I get to go along for the ride!
