Starting a Glog for SERC


A Glog is like a posterboard - you may upload pictures, write interesting facts and thoughts, and insert cool graphics...



Today, we will create a Glog using pictures from your adventure to SERC yesterday!

I'm going to show you a quick video about Glogster, which explains Glogster in 90 seconds (I'll review it more slowly):


You'll all login to Glogster using this link:

http://edu.glogster.com/

Your login will be your lastname, first initial: (GrangerH)
and the password for everyone will be htsglog

You will select the template I have created from the projects tab, and we will get started! :)

Happy Glogging,

Mrs. Morell

In the Lab today...

Hello Dear 4th graders,

I will be out on Thursday, so Mrs. Miller will be your sub.

I would like you to practice your keyboarding using BBC Dancemat Typing for the first 20 minutes of class.  Remember to keep your keyboard covers on, and your fingers on the homekeys!

Then, you may make a choice from the following menu:

RAZ-com to practice your reading. (remember, you login will be jdelaneyo)



Mathletics to work on your math skills... or




FreeRice to practice your vocabulary.



Be excellent for Mrs. Miller!  I will miss you, but will see you next week,

Mrs. Morell
