Tad Late Tuesday

Hello 201 Families,

I apologize for the late post. I had to leave early today. The kids can fill you in!  This morning was an exciting one. All 201 students received their cpsgoogle accounts.   Mrs. Simenson was in to help us get started.  This is an exciting step for your child! A letter went home today and should be in the green folder. Within the next week, we will be launching Google Classroom.

What else is new?

• Thanks to those who have turned in Chapter 6 Math corrections. Please check your child's score on Think Central. Corrections should be completed on a separate sheet of paper. All work must be shown!
• Valentine's Day is quickly approaching! 201 students may bring cards or individually wrapped goodies to share this Friday!   Please make sure that you have something for everyone! There are 201 students in our class. We will dedicate last period to the celebration.  
• Next week, 201 will embark on an exciting pilot project from the designers of Espark: Frontier Learning. 

What is Frontier? Frontier is a web-based project learning experience. Students will....select a topic....explore podcasts, interactive graphics, videos and online articles...explore and develop questions.research and take notes... use the writing process...give and provide feedback for peers.....and finally... create a digital presentations that showcase their learning.

Frontier asks...

What do you love? What do you wonder? What will you learn? What will you make?

I can't wait to get started!

This evening at home....
