1-14-2008 (A Day) Happenings

We reviewed the Packer Contest. I checked for supplies. The class submitted their finalized Hurricane Wiki Project. Each group presented their Hurricane Wiki to the class using the Tablet PC and LCD Projector. Students spent 25 minutes participating in RIF. I then returned the completed Hurricane Wiki Project Grading Rubric and answered any questions that students had regarding their group grade. We then registered for the FBI-Safe Online Surfing (SOS) activity.
