Headsprout is 'sprouting' at PS71Q


We are currently running a test pilot Headsprout program at PS71Q. What is Headsprout you ask? Headsprout is a computer reading program in which students proceed at their own pace learning letter sounds, blends and eventually reading words and stories. It is a very engaging program that the students are enjoying. In the upcoming 2007/2008 school year Ms. Olivella has purchased the program and it will be expanded to encompass many more students. We can hardly wait.

PowerPoint Presentation Publishing Parties

Students in my computer classes have been working very hard preparing their Narrative Procedures on PowerPoint. Most of my students are 2nd graders and a few are 3rd and 1st graders. You will be surprised by their wonderful presentations. Let us know what you think about the quality of their work.
