Week of Dec 10 (2.7)

2.7 TIGER TO DO LIST


UPCOMING TIGER TASKS:

CURRICULUM ANNOUNCEMENTS

FA3 was due in DMAC November 30th.  DO NOT print your test until it has been approved by campus administration.  Remember that Ms. Stiney will print answer keys for you.  Here is a list of subjects administering FA3.  Non-STAAR FA3 may be administered after we return from Christmas Break.  Please see your campus administrator for specifics.

TECH TIP THURSDAY

This week is Computer Science Education Week. The focus of this week is to inspire K-12 students to become interested in computer science. You might be thinking that there is no way that you can inspire students to learn about computer science, but that is where you are wrong! https://code.org/ is an excellent resource for introducing computer science to students and it is very easy to use. This month I challenge you and your students to explore computer science by practicing coding. It can be an excellent extension for students and a lot of fun. Check out all of the great resources at https://code.org/


STAFF SHOUTOUT

Shoutout to our amazing food service team at the MS/HS Cafeteria. They always do an excellent job feeding our very hungry middle and high school students in a quick and efficient manner. Thank you Terri Rodriquez, Taylor Hopper, and Laura Meserole for all that you do for Blue Ridge ISD.
