WISE WEDNESDAY
Dear Parents,
Our next endorsement that students will learn about on Wise Wednesday is STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). If you have a career in the STEM Endorsement area we need your help! On October 13th, we will introduce the STEM endorsement. We would love for our parents to be involved in our Den Time Career Exploration by recording a brief Flip Grid clip stating your name, your career, and a one sentence description of your career.
Also, make sure and give a shout out to your kiddos! You can make your video fun by including your uniform, place of business, or a special vehicle you drive.
Visit www.flipgrid.com and type the join code: ecbb47b7 and guest password Grizzlies21. (of click this link and enter guest password Grizzlies21.)
