I hope you are having a great start to your summer! We miss your kids already. I just wanted to let the elementary parents know that your kids can still access all the computer class sites that we used this year during the summer! A lot of the kids enjoyed https://code.org and https://usd243ks.typingclub.com , but there are many more sites out there. Here is the website where you can find all of the sites we used this year in class: https://sites.google.com/usd243ks.org/elementarycomputer/home If your kid wants to do any of these and has forgotten their login and/or password please shoot me an email at jstice@usd243ks.org. Have a great summer break and can't wait to see everyone in August! -Ms. Jess
