BBT & Personal Wellness 9
We have worked our way through Microsoft Outlook, Teams, Word, and Powerpoint. Students have passed in their first 10 keyboarding lessons, and the next 10 are due at the end of next week (passed in on Teams).
For Personal Wellness, we explored Residential Schools, MMIWG, and did a project on Indigenous Heroes/Influential Figures. Now students are finishing up an introduction to myBlueprint.
Note to parents: if your child mentions that they're falling behind, most work can also be done at home. Students have black dutotangs that they can bring home with them that have all of their handouts, but most are available on Teams as well. If they would like more time at school to work, I can arrange for the computer lab to be open at lunch time.
