Welcome Back From Spring Break

I hope everyone had a great Spring Break and that you all were able to recharge! Just wanted to share an update with you... Cobb County School District is now giving students two options for instruction and grading. Option 1: Students can keep their current grade that is in the Gradebook. Whatever grade that you had on March 13th, you can just keep and stop instruction. Option 2: Continue instruction in an effort to increase your current grade. I personally want to encourage all my students to continue with instruction. This is a great opportunity to boost your grade, boost your GPA and continue gaining great content. Let's not forget how important a high GPA is for getting accepted into college and continuing education.  Nevertheless, I will continue to be here for each of you. I upload assignments every Sunday night. All assignments are due the following Friday by midnight. At anytime, if you have a question, comment or concern, simply email me (Kristenthigpen@gmail.com)

Vlogging Video Project

This week students will be learning all about Vlogging.  Vlogging is extremely similar to blogging, which is where people post information or ideas on a web site.  The main difference being that the medium is a video instead of text.  Many people think of vlogging as a video blog.   It enables users to share thoughts, feelings, and information with a visual platform.   Students w ill be producing a Vlog. Your VLog will relay your experiences and reactions of our current situation of being quarantined. I understand that you may be limited with your shooting and/or editing capabilities from home but you've got to use whatever you've got available to you. Use your phone, computer or video camera to record. You are welcome to use any editing software also. Some suggestions are iMovie or WeVideo. Be sure to login to Schoology to get all the instructions and requirements for your Vlog project. Below is a great article about Vlogging in the classroom. Check it out! https://soci
