On Thursday, we will use this slide deck for our collaborative work.
Use THIS LINK to open the slides in a separate window.
You have been organized into 9 different groups. Find your partner(s) and your collaborative slide, then use the directions on slide 4 and the resources linked on slides 2 and 3 to complete your collaborative slide.
As you review resources on Thursday morning, be looking for a NEW RESOURCE (not linked directly from a GMU webpage) that you want to highlight for us and share with other teachers.
Use the padlet below to post the link to the resource. Add two sentences about WHY you like it and HOW you think you can use it.
