August 27 or 28

Help us get to know you better!

Share something with the class that helps us get to know you a little better. This can be anything that you would like to share. Your presentation should be between 1 and 3 minutes in length. It will not be timed, but if it is too short we might not get enough information to understand. If the presentation is too long, you might lose the audience's attention. We do have to be mindful of our classmates also.

All students should have their basic ideas for the presentation ready to share with Mrs. Durfey on or before Monday, August 25. Choose either the 27th or the 28th for your presentation. It will be first come, first serve. We should hear from about 8 students per day. I cannot guarantee a time. We will be presenting throughout the day as time allows. All presentations will be recorded on SeeSaw to share with family.

Keep Mrs. Durfey in the loop! Let her know if you need anything from the classroom or special accomodations. If you think it might not be allowed at school, definitely talk to Mrs. Durfey. It just might!
