Jetson School of Imagination Team Newsletter - ELA link
Having a classroom newsletter is a great way to inform parents of all the wonderful activities, lessons, and events their children are experiencing in school. A newsletter helps strengthen parent/teacher communication. Others sources of communication that can accompany the newsletter, such as; your blog, website, and wiki sites, give parents a fuller description of their child's in school life. Using various sources of communication, such as blogging, in addition to the traditional in person parent/teacher conference and phone calls, give parents an opportunity to give immediate feedback.
This project proved to be yet another example of true collaboration within our group. We each shared and contributed to the main page of our newsletter; then, we had an opportunity to express our individual styles in our linked subject pages. We used Letter Pop for our main page and it had some glitches that stumped us; such as, video that would not upload on page. However, I have to say Pat would not give up on solving our video issues. It took him some time but he got it to work. Thanks Pat! For our individual pages, we all choice to use Glogster, it proved to be much easier uploading video, pictures, and links; also, it has more variety in page design. The use of technology was quite useful in assuring our communication, as always, remained open and consistent. Also, the outgoing and easy personality of my team members has made the last four work-filled weeks pleasurable. Thanks Team!! : )
