Consider this...

One more thing 7A -- I want you to consider that we've identified a number of themes today: judgment, empathy, acceptance, fairness, misunderstandings, euqality bravery, trust...etc.

While all these themes exist -- there is one overwhelming message that stands out. Which one is most supported by the evidence you found?

Passwords

Hey 7A,

Just a friendly reminder that you make sure you change your passwords on your VoiceThread accounts. That information (as with anything else) is private. Do not give out or share that info with friends.

7A,

Your VoiceThread profile pages are up and running. You can go on tonight and upload your first assignment. I'll give you feedback as they come in. Remember you need to:

1. Sign in
2. Click on the "menu" option on your profile page (the little cog)
3. Click "edit"
4. Then upload your image and make your comments!

Best,

Voicethread Update

Hi 7A,

I've got some news that I'm sure you'll like: DO NOT upload your Frog Belly Rat Bone graphic organizer to Voicethread. It seems that we've still got to set up the profile page -- but that should be done by Monday. So again, don't upload your theme response to FBRB this weekend. 

In the meantime make sure that your profile IS uploaded to Voicethread by Monday. There are still a couple of students who haven't done that just yet. Other than that, make sure you complete your math questions for the weekend.

Have a great weekend!

Technology

Hi 7A,

There are those of you who are asking to bring in technology into our classrooms (laptops, iPads, iPhones...etc). I must stress that if you choose to bring in those objects, they become YOUR responsibility. Please remember that the school does not take responsibility for lost or stolen items. If we're not using tech in the classroom, they MUST be locked away in your lockers.
