Interactive Sites for Learning Abound!

If you have not checked out our library/media center wiki lately, please take some time and do so! You will find a plethora of information concerning suggested reading lists for children, a myriad of interactive learning sites, as well as at home reading sites! The link is http//trinitywildcatroar.pbworks.com . It has been added to this bog for quick access. You may also access it as well as any of our other teacher blogs through our website. I encourage you to check out the wikis and blogs by teachers' names at our school. The easiest way to do this is to go to our homepage, go to the far upper left and click "about" then scroll down to "faculty/staff directory". If a teacher has a blog or wiki it is listed or linked to their picture. There is more information on these blogs/wikis than you can imagine!

I have also added a link called Free Rice to this blog. This is an interactive vocabulary builder great for all ages, right up to adulthood. It is a non-profit website run by the UN World Food Program and partnered with Harvard University. The words used are based on high level standardized testing (ACT, SAT, GRE) and are in a multiple choice format. For each correct answer 10 grains of rice are donated to help end world hunger.

Reminders:
*the Holiday writing activity deadline is approaching next week!
*LS Faculty Meeting will be Mon., Nov. 8th
*Midterm Reports go out Mon., Nov. 8th
