Week Ending April 27

in room 15, we strive to be focused and relaxed Weekly Update for the Week Ending Friday, April 27 Google Slides:   How You Can Help at Home We have started to use what we’ve learned from our rainforest research to create four slides on Google Slides.   Using Google Slides allows students to easily work on this both at school and at home.   Everything that students NEED to complete will be done at school.   However, many students are enjoying fussing with fonts, colors and images.   This is fine to do at home.   There are a few guidelines to keep in mind and those are listed below.   Feel free to help your child, if s/he wants it.   Otherwise, we will be doing all of the work on this at school (unless you get a message from me requesting your help).   We will be sharing our finished slide show at Open House, so your child may want to keep his/her work a secret.   Others may be excited to share with you right away.   Follow the lead of your child.
