My name is Kath Penner.

 

This year, I am teaching grade one at JR Walkof schol, both firsts for me.

I have spent many hours thinking about technology integration and have done a few little things. I still have a long way to go....

 

One of my favorite websites right now, for my grade one class, is www.starfall. .com

 

----------

Firstly, A Thanksgiving Tradition, was put together by Tegan, who is in grade 3 at JR Walkof.

We took the sequence of events, and then she added the script, and the text to the pages she chose.

It is a really neat way to capture stories, events, and highlights and this story will be saved for future memories.

And YES, it is a true story that happens each year at The Farm
