Blackboard

Parents and students, I am excited to share my new Blackboard classroom with you. Blackboard is a powerful software program that extends the classroom beyond the familiar four walls!

I took an introductory class this summer, so using Blackboard with a "bricks and mortar" classroom is very new to me. Please be patient as I investigate all the features Blackboard offers!

Georgia Standards

What is a standard anyway? For students, a standard is what they should know and should be able to do. The CRCT is written based on the standards, so to ensure solid test scores, we must base our instruction on the Georgia Performance Standards. Below is a PDF file of the 8th grade English Language Arts Standards.
