Welcome to Technology Class!

I hope that everyone had a great time this summer!  I went to the beach in Rhode Island which is where I grew up.  I am so excited about teaching you again this year.  Your regular Technology class will take place every Monday afternoon.  Also, on Wednesday mornings, you will come to Technology for part of your Language Arts class.

Today, we will go over the Class Rules and Expectations.  After that, I will hand out ipads to everyone and you will create a cover for your Language Arts binder using Pic Collage.  There won't be enough time to finish your Pic Collage today, however, you will have time to finish when we meet again next week.  Your Pic Collage must include the following:

  1. A photo of yourself (use the ipad camera or ask a neighbor to take a photo of you).
  2. Type 3 adjectives that describe YOU.
  3. Type 3 hobbies or activities you enjoy.
  4. Title: Your Name’s L.A. Binder (John’s L.A. Binder).  This should be big and easy to see immediately.
  5. Insert images of your favorite things including: sports, animals, pets, books, authors, musicians, vacation places, hobbies, colors foods, etc. No more than 2 images of any one category (for example, no more than 2 images of sports).
