Students spent the week of January 11th working on a scavenger hunt - trying to disguise and to discover different views of objects that are around us at the middle school.
Students used PowerPoint to create their presentations and will be sharing them with the class on 1/15, 1/19, 1/20, and 1/21.
Once presentations are complete students will use web tools including blabberize, google earth, and screen cast -o-matic to round out the remainder of the semester.
All work for the technology class must be turned in to the "hand in to teacher folder" for it to be graded. If you or your child is missing a grade, they can access their h drive and the shared i drive (to turn in their missing assignments) by clicking on the North Branch Area Schools homepage, selecting students from the left hand column, selecting net storage, and then entering their school username and password.
Technology students will switch to ART starting on January 28th.
