Innovations ReportDigital Literacy & Computer Science Skills with Ms. Diieso

April 24, 2020

Hello Awesome Readers and Budding Computer Scientists,


It was great to see so many of you in our Zoom class again this week. Now, we all have one more new digital tool that we are familiar with using-Padlet. The 2/3 class learned how to collaboratively write a story on a digitally Padlet timeline. Grades 4/5 plotted their ancestors' countries of origin on a Padlet world map.


Next week, we will have a live Zoom class again, but the following week's library will change to a recorded message from me and a posted assignment. I expect that the rotation of live and then recorded will continue that way through the end of the school year.


Through all weeks, I can be reached by comment windows in Google Classroom and by Gmail lidia.diieso@watertown.k12.ma.us Please contact me if you need any assistance or want to suggest any apps or websites that you are curious about and you would like for me to incorporate into a future lesson.


Be well.

Ms. Diieso
