Preder's Pages
January 30th
Breakout Edu
Thanks to a successful Donors Choose project, Breakout Edu has come to JRT! Last week Jill's class experienced what Breakout Edu is all about! Breakout Edu is like an Escape Room, but can be adapted to all grade levels and subject areas. I will host a training on Breakout Edu on February 15th at 7:55am in the JRT Library. Come and check it out, you will even earn CPDU's for playing! As soon as the sign up link is available, I will share it!
Battle of the Books
On Thursday our final 5 Battle of the Books teams competed for two slots in the District Battle of the Books competition. The Dragon Knight Gamers and The Warriors will be representing JRT on Feb. 7th at Brooks Middle School at 6pm. You are welcome to attend and cheer them on!
Facebook Training
If you missed out on the first Facebook Training, I am hosting a second training on Feb. 10th at 7:55 in the JRT Library. As soon as I have the link to sign up for CPDU's I will send it out in an email.
Spring Book Fair
Mark your calendars! The spring book fair will be Feb. 17th - Feb. 24th.
