Blogs are a-coming!

The new 6th grade class logged into their edublogs for the first time today; we can't wait to see how their digital portfolios look after 3 years! They had a chance to see the blogs last year's students created, and learned about commenting do's and don'ts when responding on each other's blogs. The 7th grade class also logged into their blogs and were surprised to see comments awaiting them after our summer break. This year they will get a chance to add to their compendium of work and be able to reflect upon past projects.

The Class of 2014 learns science using many modes, textbooks, online resources, class notes from teacher lectures and student-led projects. In the one month since they have received their laptops, they have realized the importance of keeping a full charge. They use them all day long, in every class. We look forward to another year of wonderful learning projects from our Talent 21 students.

Rollout!

We were thrilled this year to rollout the laptops to the new 6th graders and the incoming 7th graders. With so much experience under their belts, the  7th graders were ready to embrace new projects after a summer hiatus.  We have budding musicians who are excited to be using music editing software to create their own compositions.  We planned on pairing the experienced 7th graders with the 6th graders for some of our introduction projects.  Who better to teach them how to care for their laptops?

Our other exciting news is that through separate funding, Woodbine Elementary School has expanded the implementation of interactive whiteboards to the second through fifth-grade classrooms.
