Technology This Year at CCA
This year will be unique for technology. I am currently expecting twins and due to the COVID situation and a high risk pregnancy I will be teaching technology class remotely from my home. Mrs. Shafer will be my sub and will be present in the room during class. I will be doing a Google Meet with all classes and instructing them with new skills and lessons. Mrs. Shafer will support students during independent work time. While this situation is unique, I am excited for a great year!
