Weeks of February 1 and February 8

Students have experienced with Google Drive. To go along with opinion writing, students created a document, wrote in their opinion how the class should be arranged and who they want to sit next to and then shared the document with me. This was a way for the student to get used to sharing documents and give their opinion of the class. We have been working on opinion writing and Ms. Bender, a writing consultant for the district, did a lesson with us.

See previous post for an example (draft) of our opinion writing.


We took our first test in Journeys on the net books. There were multiple choice and open response. Students are able to pause and score the test.

In math we continued to work with Envision on the net books. Student are able to review previous lessons to reinforce a concept while others are able to preview new learning.
