Dear Parents...

About our class blog...

Last year, I blogged everyday about our school day.  Basically in the blog I...
  • Summarized what we did in class that day.
  • Linked educational resources and games.
  • Posted student work.
  • Posted notes and powerpoints from the day.
  • Posted pictures, funny anecdotes and humorous rantings.
(To view the old webpage go here:  http://hi.swcs.us/~matt.morgan/ )

This year, I will be doing the same thing but on a different website. Due to this transition, it will take me some time to get this website up to the standards that I want. I hope to have it fully formed by mid-September.

There is one major change from last year that I must note.  I will not be able to blog on Thursdays. My daughter, Brooklyn, has dance class those days and I gotta get home and get her to it.  Other than that you can expect a blog daily.

I like to think of my website as a major hub for student, parent, and school communication, as well as a resource and instructional tool for learning. So, please save this site if you can and visit often.

Thanks,

Mr. Morgan


Welcome Back!!



Science:  We went over expectations.  Talked about making observations and then played an observation game.

Math:  I introduced students to our online world (weekly short-cycle assessments, Quia, class website).  We also looked at our new Math books and went over the targets for the first unit.   Students:  You can get a 100-point card if you get on Quia and play either the matching or concentration games. 

During BCO we went played a few team building games and then called it a day.


Playing the game 'Who am I?'

These guys had Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears stuck to their back, as others tried to get them to figure out who they were.
