It's Been Too Long!

2012-01-19T08:48:00.002-06:00

I can't believe how fast time flies! It's been since October that I posted something. I feel awful that I've let this go so much. We are now in the second semester and on the downhill slide. Ball games are in full swing, volleyball has started, and everyone's lives are very busy. Mine included!

Here is a website, Knowledge Adventure, that has a ton of games to keep you busy when you're finished with homework. Hopefully there will be something on here you like!

2011-10-06T14:01:00.004-05:00

We are going to begin something new in my class and Mrs. Linder's class. Blogging! We are going to use Kidblog.org which is a great safe site for students to blog on. View the following video tutorial to get started!

Week of September 19

2011-09-19T10:25:00.002-05:00

Oops! I missed last week! I think there was enough on the last website to keep you busy though. This week I've chosen something a little different. This website, KidsKnowIt, has a ton of information on it to learn about. Read through some of it and see if you learn anything new. Of course, there are some games as well, but you're even learning when you play those!

Week of September 5th

2011-09-05T21:25:00.003-05:00

We are into September and have already had our first day off of school! I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend. The website for this week includes a lot of brain games and puzzles. But remember to have all of your homework finished before you click on this link or you'll be working on another kind of assignment... one you won't like!

Week of August 29

2011-08-28T18:02:00.003-05:00

Welcome to the new school year!!! This year you are only allowed to complete the activities or go to the websites on the current week's post. So if you go to the blog this week, this is the only post you can do. Also, you will only be going to the blog if you have your computer assignment complete, have your other homework finished, or have read your AR book first. There will not be any hurrying to finish your assignments to get to play games. They are all going to be educational websites and activities. We will be learning in Mrs. Smith's room at all times! This week the website is QuizHub. Try all of the matching quizzes, even if you think you won't know the answers. See how well you do!

School is coming...

Can you believe there's only a month left of freedom? This summer has flown by! I've been so busy traveling with friends and family that I have hardly been home. It's been great getting to see so many places and do so many different things, but it would have been nice to have been home a little more. My husband and I went to Hawaii in June. It was beautiful! This is a picture of us at the Seven Sacred Pools on the Road to Hana on Maui. Then three of my girlfriends and I traveled to Florida for some great girl time. Following that, I took four high school girls to Carbondale for yearbook camp. We had a good time and got a lot accomplished for next year's high school yearbook. Then the same day I got home from Carbondale, my whole family (mom, dad, brothers, and their families) got in the cars and headed to Kentucky Lake for a long weekend. There were many awesome memories made this summer. I hope you are enjoying your time off and have gotten to do some fun things this summer as well. See you soon!

Last Assignment for 7th Grade ONLY!

I know Mrs. Linder is going to be discussing the Civil War with you this last week of school. I want to concentrate a little more on the Underground Railroad.

Wow! Spring is almost here and the school year is flying by. It will be Easter before we know it. There are still a lot of things we need to get through before then though. The 8th grade projects will be very interesting and creative so be watching out for those. We are really trying to make them the best.

I'm giving you two websites to pick from this time, but only do one of these. Don't go to the archives and do the ones you want.

The new year always brings with it new hopes and possibilities. There's a feeling of renewal and starting fresh for most people. But it's always up to you! We've still got half the school year left and have a lot to get accomplished. We'll have some fun but learn along the way as well!

Here is a website you've been to before and seemed to enjoy: Edheads

It is so amazing to me that it is already the first of December. The year is flying by! It is also amazing that we finally have our new computers!!! It will be so nice to get to teach you so much more now that the equipment we have works correctly and isn't so slow. Get ready!

6th Grade: Go to this website and do only the keyboarding games - Keyboarding Games for Kids
7th & 8th Grade: Go to this website - FunTrivia

Some of you have taken advantage of the extra credit given through the blog, some of you have not. Here's this week's question: Who invented electric Christmas lights? Go to Everyday Mysteries and find out! Post your answer (with your name) as an anonymous comment.

Thanksgiving Week

2010-11-22T09:53:00.004-06:00

Get ready for the week of stuffing yourself silly and spending time with family members! I personally have three family dinners to attend with one being Christmas as well as Thanksgiving. The only thing I don't like about this time of year is that Christmas keeps getting earlier and earlier. Just let Thanksgiving have it's day already! Then you can turn on your Christmas lights and play the Christmas music. Ok, I'm finished complaining. Here's a website for you to go to. Read a little, play a few games, learn something. http://www.history.com/

Also, some of you have actually read the blog posts and not just clicked on the links. Here is another extra credit item for those who choose to read. How do fortunes get inside fortune cookies? Go to Everyday Mysteries to find out! Post your answer (with your name) as an anonymous comment.

Here are a couple websites I want you to check out while I'm gone the end of this week. I'll be at a conference learning a lot of new things to bring back to you. I know you've seen some of these before but it's been awhile.

I'm also going to start posting extra credit possibilities every once in awhile so keep checking back! All you have to do is find the answer and send me a comment with the answer.

The leaves are changing and the temperature is dropping. It's the time of year for bonfires, raking leaves, and, for some, TPing! I remember those days of trying not to get caught throwing the TP around someone's yard. It's all in good fun, just remember to be respectful when you're painting a friend's lawn white.

Here is a new website for you to try out: www.fun4thebrain.com. There are some fun games to play to review your math, science, and English skills. I know some of you will find it too elementary, but try it out and see how you do!

Good morning 6th graders!

We have been learning the home row and it is very important that you know it well. There are many reasons to learn the right fingers to use on the right keys. You will eventually become faster and faster at keying by continuing to take your time and follow the keyboarding techniques.

Remember:

1. Sit up straight with both feet on the floor.

2. Fingers curved and upright over the home row keys.

3. Wrists low, but not touching the desk or keyboard.

4. Keep your fingers on the home row keys and stretch to reach other keys.

Here are a couple typing games to help increase your speed and accuracy with the home row keys.

New School Year! 2009-2010

2009-08-24T16:55:00.000-05:00

Hey new 6th, 7th, & 8th Graders!
I can't wait for the new 2008-2009 school year to begin! I have so much I want you to learn on the computers here at SCMS!

6th Grade: You will be learning how to use the basic functions of a computer. With major emphasis on keyboarding and learning how to key correctly.

7th Grade: You will be developing more of your keyboarding skills and learning more about Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel!

8th Grade: Multimedia class is a broad category and I am hoping to build on the skills you have already learned, while incorporating digital cameras, videos, podcasts, vodcasts and other technologies available today!

Good Luck this year and Let's Get Learning!
