Dear 223 Families,

Well, the snow sure is piling up this January!  With three snow day cancellations and one scheduled holiday, I will need to adjust the time-table for Unit 6 Visual Literacy.  Both this week, Week 20, and next week, Week 21, students will be completing lessons for L6.35-L6.36 Digital Manipulation.  Students will take a "selfie" using the IPEVO web cam, save it to the pupil network drive, and use 8 photo editing tools to digitally alter their image.  We are using the quote "a picture is worth a thousand words" to guide our Visual Literacy unit, and students will put together a slide show with all of their manipulated images to tell a new story about themselves.

Thank you for your flexibility during our time of winter white (a.k.a. snow).  Please continue to access MOODLE to preview, review, and make-up missed classes.

Sincerely,
Ms. Thackston-Dodge
