English/Language Arts: Hello, and happy weekend! Students have been doing a great job demonstrating research skills. We’ve moved into the presentation aspect of the Genius Hour project. Students are learning how to make a presentation using Google Slides. They are being assessed on several skills, including paraphrasing, citing evidence, and summarizing information from their sources. Next week, I will teach presentation skills, such as eye contact, posture, and pacing. Presentations will be due next Wednesday. We will also have a spelling test next Friday. Let me know if you have any questions.
Have a great weekend!
