Distance Learning Week 10

Man oh man does it ever feel like June! This week I'm doing something a little bit different. I'm not sure when iPads will be collected so I want to make sure that we get the chance to share kind thoughts and memories with all of our classmates. I have created a Warm and Fuzzies Digital Yearbook for each of my classes using Google Slides and FlipGrid. The goal is for you to leave either a written message or video message sharing things you like about each person in your class. At the end of the year, I will make sure that you all have your own digital keepsake. I have also included the usual reading and writing options for those students who wish to do a little extra work.
