Announcements!

September 1st, 2012

Hello Avoca West 5th graders and welcome to this wiki! During the next several weeks we will be using the resources provided here to support our classroom learning. You will be developing leadership skills while working with the kindergarten students, as well as learning how to write and publish a picture book using iBook. Your finished books will be published in a print edition that will be processed for checkout in our library, as well as a digital edition using epub. Students will be able to enjoy these on both our iPads and Kindles.

There is a lot to explore in this wiki, so please spend some time clicking on the various links to become familiar with the layout. I will also go over each assignment in class and answer any questions you may have. Since I only see you once a week, I have created an Avoca Q&A page for you. On this page you can post questions about anything related to this class, which anyone can answer. Each of you is an expert on something and may have just the answer that your classmate is looking for! I will also respond to questions posted on this page. If you have a question that you would like to ask me privately, simply email me and I will get back you within the school day.

I'm looking forward to an exciting trimester together!
