Here's what is happening in class this week:

6th Grade - 
Students are filming, editing, and producing short movies using the Weber Media Center laptops and Windows Moviemaker for editing

We will be spending some time on typing and also begin research on a technology. Students must have their chosen technology approved and will create a website teaching others about the technology.

8th Grade - 
Students will be learning about Google Drive and what is available to them with their google login. Students who already have a gmail account will use their own and all others will be able to use a generic account that I have created for the class.

*Parents FYI - Google logins provide not only a gmail account, but access to Google Drive (cloud storage and content creation and collaboration), blogger account for website development, and youtube account.
