The third graders created short films based on scenes from the class novel Little House in the Big Woods. They had such a great time learning how to edit movies in iMovie and we had a blast sharing the movies at our premier party! We even had two second grade bloggers join us as “Press” for our party!
Scroll down to watch the iMovie projects. This was such a fun way to end the year in technology, way to go third grade!

The arcade was a great success! Grades 2+ all had a chance to visit the arcade and play the games designed by sixth graders and code academy students.
Many students were inspired by the coders’ creativity and skills. I have received several requests to share the games with everyone, so all of the links to play will be pasted below.
Not only was this such a fun and engaging event for our own community, but we were also able to raise $200 towards donating technology to a special school in need through the organization Thankful Thinking. Wow! Congratulations to all who participated.

Take a look at these awesome digital portfolios created by students. They did a great job creating slideshows (some even made websites) to reflect on this year’s technology projects.
Don’t forget to download your child’s digital portfolio by following these steps. If you have a personal Google account, you can click on your profile picture to sign out or switch accounts.
