Technology Buddies
We started a new partnership this month as part of our technology focus at Seabury -- technology buddies! After working on their own project in the computer lab, the Serpents stayed to help us with ours - creating a poster using Publisher to showcase the information we researched for our reports on individual explorers. The Serpents helped us find and import pictures of our explorers and maps of their routes, making short work of some complicated procedures involving copying and importing images. This new partnership will allow us to really leverage all the great tools technology provides and help to integrate more choice of products into all of the students' projects as we share and learn from each other. Thanks, Serpents!
