Winter Break has arrived and we are hoping to keep kids thinking and practicing and learning over the holiday. There are four ways we are doing this.
1) Schoology: This is our main learning portal and it is kid-safe and teacher-moderated. I post learning experiences, educational games, and reading activities for the kids to allow me to continue to work with them even when we are not in class--even when we are on vacation! Schoology is an important part of our GT learning program at Holm, and students are encouraged to go to the site often to see new activities and discussions.
2) Holm Coding Club: Students are encouraged to continue learning to code with FREE games and activities at this site (free game downloads as prizes while supplies last!): To join the class: http://learn.code.org/join Class entrance code: FQJLIR; To sign in: http://learn.code.org/
All Holm GT kids are invited to participate and are encouraged to advance to higher levels of challenge. Contact me if you have another child who would like to get invovled!
