Third and Fourth Graders worked hard on math, reading and written language sections over the last two weeks in March.
This year, the essay portion has been moved to May. We will all appreciate the break from testing! We should be able to schedule all classes for the essay portion in a three day period.

Digital Footprints
In this video from CommonSense Media, students learn that the information that they put online leaves a digital footprint or "trail." This trail can be big or small, helpful or hurtful, depending on how they manage it.

Clicky, the yellow robot, often reminds kids to "Ask an adult!" when they have
any concerns while online. What great advice! If you'd like to see more NetSmartz resources, check out their site.
It's hard to evaluate all the media that is available to our children these days,
but that is exactly what the folks at Common Sense Media are here to help with.
Visit their pages for review of movies, TV shows, books, games, apps and websites. and so much more.
Parenting can be a little easier..with their resources.

Digital Footprints
Third graders are learning about leaving Digital Footprints,
and have "met" six digital characters (Sandy is shown here) that share their positive and negative choices in their brief clips.
Each student has selected one character to write a letter to, in their Google account. Students will be kindly communicating both their compliments and concerns as they give their best advice.
This activity encompasses all of our school expectations:

Selecting their own desktop pictures for their Linux accounts is a privilege enjoyed by 2nd-4th graders here at HES. We talk about the importance of searching for, and choosing, images that are appropriate for school. Humorous pics are welcome!
