South Pole Skype

Today we had the most amazing opportunity to Skype with Savannah's aunt who is working for the National Science Foundation at the U.S. South Pole Station.  Unfortunately our Skype video connection didn't work, but we were able to speak with her and two colleagues about living and working at the South Pole.  It was a super cool experience!

Learning.com Keyboarding Program

Today we started using Learning.com to learn how to keyboard correctly.  The kids really enjoyed their first experience, and some of them even earned their first (virtual) certificate!  To access this program:

1. Log in to Clever.  (Students click on the "Log in with Active Director" and then enter their 5-digt number minus uc as the user name then their UCS + 5 different digits as the password.)
2. Choose the Learning.com icon!

(Students MUST log in through Clever to access the school's paid subscription.)

Have fun learning!
