This
past week saw a variety of classes in the IMC using the computers
ending with the beginning of the 8th grade Political Spectrum
project. I presented the 8th grade Social Studies classes with a Road
Map for Research progressing from a general encyclopedia to a book
search on the I.P.A.C. to online databases for reference materials
and magazines and newspapers to a general Internet search. Each stop
on the Road Map builds the student's knowledge about their topics.
Next
week the 8th grade Social Studies classes continue their research.
Miss Trefonas's 5th grade class will come for another visit
consisting of a Research Road Map presentation and book checkout.
Also 7th and 8th grade Language Arts classes come in Wednesday and
Friday for book checkout. A busy week ahead!
