Here is an update of the lessons in the technology lab today. Thank you for stopping by!
Fifth Grade: Students continued to edit their letters to President Obama. Students are developing writing skills in how to write a business letter while paying close attention to fine details. Students will learn to properly address a business envelope next week and then the letters to Obama will be in the mail! We will be waiting anxiously for replies. This is a fun and educational site for kids that is filled with interesting facts about the presidents and the White House.

Fourth Grade: Each student wrote a brief paragraph about her/himself for our Wiki. Every fourth grade student will have her/his own Wiki page. Some were able to upload their work. Stay tuned for our Wiki URL next week! If you'd like to learn more about what a Wiki is, this is an excellent document that explains the concept.

Second Grade: Students completed final copies about Martin Luther King Jr. on Microsoft Word. With assistance, students were able to save and retrieve work from last week using their flash drives. Here is a biography on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. It is very appropriate for second grade.
