What can I be doing over the summer to get ready for school?
- Do your summer reading assignments.
- Use a program on the computer to make sure you know how to type (without looking at the keyboard)
- School supplies will be on the Solebury website in August.
- Read about current events going on in the world.
- Find a blog that you like to read and keep up with it. (You will be designing your own this year)
- We will be using Google Drive to turn in assignments- if you have a home computer that you will be using, download Drive onto it. You will get a Solebury email account that works on Google Drive once you arrive for orientation.
- If you don't already have one- you will need an itunes account for your ipad.
