2. The monarchs are back! Just as the next generation of real monarchs are heading back into our region, our paper monarchs have migrated back to the United States and Canada! We received paper butterflies from 37 different states as well as some from Canada and Mexico. Where did our butterflies land? Check the list to find out-new posts are still being added, so keep checking back! Although individual butterflies are not always posted, it looks like our large class butterflies landed in West Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Texas, and Colorado.
3. Last week, we used Excel to make graphs of our first graders' heights. Let's review how cells are ordered on an excel graph by following the directions to make a cool butterfly picture (thanks to Barb Smith from the great Elementary Tech Teachers network for this idea!)


3-4 Technology:



1. Take this typing speed test and record your score. If your score is lower than last time, please take again. When you are done, you may play any of the keyboarding games while we wait for everyone to finish.
2. Last week we took some digital photos-this week, we get to make them really unique! Let's explore some photo editing at pixlr express   First, make a new folder labeled "My Photos" in your kidsave folder. Copy and paste any pictures you want to edit into that folder-be appropriate! Play around-you don't have to save the final version and can start over at any time.
