Instructional Technology Tidbits
a few notes from the ITS
Coding
The teacher dashboard on Code.org was down this week to help them keep up with the amount of traffic they were receiving. It is starting to catch up and hopefully all our hard work will show soon. If not, I'm sure the kids wont mind doing it again.
If you need help with adding students, seeing progress, fitting it in...anything, let me know. Coding is an important skill our students will need to be successful in the future. Let's give them that foundation!
Achieve 3000 Read to Succeed Contest
Congratulations to the winning classes, Ms. Bullock's at Lynnhaven and Ms. Dungan's at Trantwood! Even though the contest period is over, keep up the momentum. Maybe try a similar contest within your classroom. Encourage initial scores over 75% not just number of completed articles. Be creative! The kids will love it.
Global Seesaw Challenge
