Summer G.O.L.D. Week 1 & ScootPad

I blogged about my Summer G.O.L.D. program last week and included the introduction newsletter. I'm back this week to give you the newsletter and materials for Week 1. I'm keeping it all pretty basic.  You can access the file here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7NHbGd4HpUbNWh3WUVYYk43MkE/edit?usp=sharing


I wanted to talk about a website that I was introduced to by a friend on Pinterest. It's called Scoot Pad. It's a free website where you can set kids up with a username and password. Then, you can give them assignments or they can work on different standards at their own pace. For more information, visit their website at http://www.scootpad.com or click on the banner below to read an awesome blog post about it.  I'll be blogging more about it once I've had time to fully play with it.
