We now have Glogster accounts available for all sixth graders who want them! Glogster is a fun and interesting way to organize and present information. It's a bit like having a technologically advanced poster: pictures, music, videos, and audio included. If you are interested in exploring Glogster, please register for your account below. Students will be added to the JCOS account and I will then assign them to the Bridges' Class. When it is time to present your SDL, all we need to do is pull your Glogster up on the Smartboard and you are off and running!
When you register for your "nickname," please use your real first and last name so your account is identifiable to me among all the other JCOS students.

Teacher Code: 6H6F12 (Our teacher-librarian, Angie, registered for this account so she might appear as the teacher's name.)

Here's what I'm doing on my SDL. What are you up to?
I have been learning so much! I have learned about an entirely new set of tools (for me) and how they work. I've made a lot of mistakes. And, as you can see, a little bit of blood was shed. I'm excited to learn about your mistakes, your problem solving, and your discoveries! Spring break will be an excellent opportunity to get a lot of STL work done. What are you up to?

March 15 Newsletter
JCOS 6th Grade Newsletter
March 15, 2013
With the exception of a few make-up tests, we are done with TCAP 2013! Now we are able to return our focus to developing into prepared pre-walkabout students. Students should be working on their SDL/Voyage projects at home every week. PLAID (Personal Learning and Independent Discovery) time will continue to be offered on Wednesdays, and many students are utilizing this time in creative and productive ways. Thanks to all the family, friends, neighbors, consultants, and experts who have donated their time and thoughts to assist in this process. We could not do it without you.
The sign-up sheet for Spring Conferences is going home today. Please have your child return this form on Monday with your first, second, and third time slots noted. Slots will be assigned on a first come- first served basis.
